Scarcely even counts as a recipe, given how simple it is, but it's worth noting because it is *so* good. Thanks to my father for the suggestion.
Take an eggplant. (We did it with the round purple-and-white ones. No idea what they're called: the guy at the farmer's market simply named them "purple".) Slice it fairly thin -- quarter-inch slices or so. Brush on olive oil on both sides (I'm experimenting with flavored oils, which are proving interesting), and sprinkle with a bit of pepper and a dash of kosher salt.
Grill on direct high heat, pretty quickly -- 2-3 minutes per side, until each side has very dark grill marks. Serve immediately, and enjoy...
