Aubergine

Aubergine (also known as eggplant) is a versatile vegetable common in Mediterranean, Middle Eastern and South Asian cuisines, used in dishes like moussaka, baba ganoush and ratatouille; it’s prized for its meaty texture and ability to absorb flavors. Nutrition-wise Aubergine is low in calories and provides about 3g of fiber per 100g, along with small amounts of protein and very little fat; it also contributes minerals such as copper and manganese and modest folate. From a health perspective, aubergine is a nutrient-dense, high-fiber vegetable that supplies useful micronutrients and plant compounds; it also contains antioxidant polyphenols (for example nasunin in the skin) which help protect cells from oxidative stress.
