Ingredients to make vegetarian stuffed eggplants in the microwave:

- 1 onion
- 2 garlic cloves
- 1 red bell pepper
- 1 green pepper
- 1 carrot
- 200 grams of crushed natural tomato or fried tomato
- 1 splash of extra virgin olive oil
- 1 pinch of ground black pepper
- 1 pinch of salt
- 1 pinch of turmeric
- 1 handful of grated Parmesan cheese
How to make Vegetarian Stuffed Eggplants in the Microwave:
- Wash the aborigines well and cut them in half lengthwise. Make transversal cuts approximately 1 cm deep with the tip of a knife without actually cutting the skin of the vegetable.
- Sprinkle a little salt and a drizzle of oil on top and microwave the aborigines on a suitable plate or tray at full power for 10-15 minutes (cooking time will vary depending on the power of your appliance and the size of the vegetables).
- Meanwhile, prepare the vegetarian stuffed eggplant stir-fry by peeling and cutting all the vegetables finely or coarsely (according to your taste).
- Reserve the tomato.
- Heat a pan with a little oil and start to poach the vegetables.
- Add a pinch of salt, turmeric and ground black pepper and stir well.
- Tip: You can add other spices or aromatic herbs if you like them.
- When the onion begins to be golden, add the natural or fried crushed tomato and continue cooking the vegetarian stuffed eggplant stir-fry.
- Once the microwaved aborigines are soft, empty them inside with the help of a spoon, trying not to break their skin.
- Chop the pulp and add it to the sauce.
- Continue cooking the stuffed eggplant stir-fry in the microwave until it is well done and all the cooking water from the tomato has evaporated.
- Adjust the flavor if necessary.
- Fill the aborigines with the vegetables and sprinkle a handful of Parmesan cheese on top.
- Trick: You can use another type of grated or sliced cheese if you prefer.
- Put the stuffed aborigines back in the microwave and program 2-4 minutes on the grill function if possible so that the cheese melts/gratins (this step is optional).
- Trick: If the filling is very hot, you won’t even need to gratin it because the cheese will melt on its own.
- Once au gratin, you will be able to taste these delicious and quick-to-make vegetarian stuffed aborigines in the microwave.
