Learnt from an erstwhile colleague recently...

For quick eggplant snack: select a nice firm fruit of appropriate size
for your appetite; trim off the calyx bits and wash; stick a knife
into it in a few places, then microwave for about three minutes
(depending on size, MW power, and similar variables); cut in half
lengthways and apply plenty of fresh pepper, then cool until
approachable. Scoop out with a spoon to eat.

Cheers, Phred.
