1 pound eggplant about 1 medium
2 tablespoons lemon juice
4 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 cup feta cheese
1/2 cup red onion finely chopped
1 small sweet red bell peppers finely chopped
1 small jalapeno pepper seeded and minced

1
Position oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source; preheat broiler.
2
Line a baking pan with foil.
3
Arrange eggplant in the pan and poke a few holes all over it to vent steam.
4
Broil the eggplant, turning with tongs every 5 minutes, until the skin is charred and a knife inserted into the dense flesh near the stem goes in easily, 15 to 18 minutes.
5
Transfer to a cutting board until cool enough to handle.
6
Add lemon juice in a medium bowl.
7
Cut the eggplant in half lengthwise and scrape the flesh into the bowl, tossing with the lemon juice to help prevent discoloring.
8
Add oil and stir with a fork until the oil is absorbed.
9
(It should be a little chunky.)
10
Add feta, onion, bell pepper, chile pepper (if using), basil, parsley, cayenne and salt to taste, and mix well.
11
Add some sugar to taste if desired.
