Aubergines (AKA purplegooberinis or something for our USA frenemies): mysterious vegetables you have to slice all thin-like and then salt till they sweat brown yuck-juice & then AND ONLY THEN PRETTY MUCH you add oil & bake them.
Delish with tomato sauce and mozarella in oven.
They are my favourite veg tho... or are you put off from the effort? It's actually not much effort?

It's one of those things where I don't particularly remember why I don't like them, but the memory is strong enough that it's put me off for nearly 20 years. And realising that they take quite a lot of effort to make them palatable even to people who like them...

Is that true for a lot of food? I find sticking them in a bowl with salt after slicing them easier than many other foods. I just sit there and wait for them to sweat and then oil them up and bake them. But yeah, if you don't like them — that's totally a good reason not to bother!

Ah, I wrongly assumed from your first tweet it was a lot more work than that. The reason I'm tempted to try them again is I previously felt this way about courgettes and olives, which are now two of my favourite foods.

They are like courgettes and olives in this context, yes!
