Shallot, caramelized

1

Grill eggplants over char-broiler or gas burner until skin turns dark brown or black and blisters, rotating eggplant once each side is blistered to ensure even charring.

2

Let charred eggplants rest for 10 to 15 minutes, then peel off blistered skin. (Eggplants can be prepared a day in advance and stored in refrigerator.)

3

To serve, cut eggplants into 2 to 2 1/2-inch lengths and place them on a large platter. Pour vinaigrette over eggplant and sprinkle with shallot and mint.
