   Halve the eggplants and rub them with a tablespoon of olive oil.

   Broil the eggplants in the oven until soft and mushy.
3. 3

   Remove the eggplants from the broiler and put them directly onto the exposed flame on a stovetop.

   Keep your eye on the eggplant.
6. 6
   A couple of minutes will do for a nice smoky char.

   Don't worry if you end up with some seeds in the flesh.
