Bake Eggplant

Preheat oven to 200°C fan-forced. Halve eggplant lengthwise and use a sharp knife to cut a crosshatch pattern in each half, taking care not to cut all the way through. Place eggplant on baking tray and drizzle with 20ml (1 tablespoon) olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Bake for 25 minutes or until soft and deep golden. While the eggplant is baking, continue with step 2.
