Jewish Soul Food: Beef And Eggplant Meatballs

  1. Place the eggplants on a rack over the open flame of the stove.
  2. Roast, turning occasionally, until the skins are charred and the flesh feels soft.
  3. The eggplants can also be roasted in a hot oven (450F) under a broiler or over hot charcoals.
  4. Cool slightly to avoid burning your hands.
  5. Peel the eggplants, taking care to remove all bits of charred skin, or cut in half lengthwise and scoop out the flesh.
  6. Transfer the flesh to a colander to drain, for an hour.
  7. Chop the flesh coarsely.
  8. Set aside.
  9. Place the bell peppers on a rack over the open flame of the stove or under a broiler and roast, turning occasionally, until the skins are charred.
