Turkish orange eggplant

Every year I try a few new varieties or seeds. This year one of my new veggies is Turkish orange eggplant. It's a very small, round eggplant - about the size of a peach or small apple. I started them from seed and had a 100% transplant rate. The plants have proven to be very resilient and prolific. I am also loving that the fruits are ready gradually - we've been eating them regularly for several weeks and there is no end in site. Their small size makes it easy to make a small side dish - it doesn't have to be an eggplant centric meal. They taste similar to other types of eggplants I've tried - each variety being a little different. 

It's definitely a winner and I will be growing it again. So far my favorite way to cook it is to slice it on the mandolin, drizzle with olive oil, salt and pepper, and put it in the oven, or toaster oven, until golden. Delicious!
