I like the eggplant, but seemed a little too much oil.

I left out the sugar and added chopped roasted carrots. Loved it!

I sprayed the eggplant with oil and roasted them in the oven. It took far less oil than frying and was less time consuming . Also sugar can be replaced with equal

I made this without celery, raisins and sugar and used 10 olives and herb white wine vinegar It was too bitter without the sugar so I added one packet of splenda. I think I like eggplant better with cheese and or garlic. Will probably not make this again
