- Review: "This Cajun dish has been lightened with reduced fat turkey sausage and fresh vegetables. Naturally, there's rice and a little bayou heat."
- Preheat the oven to 450F. Halve each aubergine, remove the tops and, using a melon baller, scoop out the flesh, leaving 1/4" thick shells. Chop the aubergine flesh.
- Place the shells in boiling water for 2 to 3 min to soften. Invert and drain on paper towels.
- Coat a large no-stick frying pan with no-stick spray. Add in the onions and water. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, for 5 min, or possibly till the onions soften.
- Add in the corn, yellow peppers and minced aubergine. Cook for 5 min.
- Add in the rice, sausages tomatoes, parsley, basil, pepper flakes and cumin.
- Cook for 10 min, or possibly till the aubergine softens. Season with the salt
- (if using) and black pepper.
- Divide the mix among the aubergine shells, mounding it as necessary to fit. Coat a 9" x 13" baking dish with no-stick spray and arrange the shells in the baking dish. Sprinkle with the bread crumbs.
- Bake for 25 to 30 min, or possibly till the topping is browned.
- 25 min of attention. 55 mins total.
