Steps
- Preheat the oven to 392°F.
- Trim the ends of the eggplants and cut them in half lengthwise. Place them on a baking sheet with parchment paper, flesh side up. Score the flesh with the tip of a knife. Drizzle a little olive oil over all the eggplant halves. Season with salt and pepper. Bake for 45 minutes.
- Peel and thinly slice the onions. In a frying pan, heat a spoonful of olive oil and sauté the onions until they are nicely browned.
- Mix the nuts and oat flakes together with a pinch of salt and cumin to obtain a powder.
- Cook the quinoa in water. Drain well. Chop the parsley.
- Retrieve the flesh of the eggplants by shredding it with a fork. Pass all the remaining skins through a blender.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded eggplant flesh, the blended skin, the crushed walnuts and oat flakes, the grilled onions, the parsley, and the quinoa.
- Mix by hand and then shape into meatballs (I make about 20, 5 per person). Place them on a baking sheet with parchment paper and bake for 12 minutes.
