There has always been a lot of poorly cooked eggplant going around. It has a ton moisture that needs to be drawn out through salt and/or roasting and frying to make it not be mushy.
Remove skin. Slice. Cook on medium heat until most moisture has been drawn out. Add olive oil, salt, black pepper and tomato paste. Serve with rice and grilled meat.

Cooked properly crispy it can be delicious.
It also absorbs oil like crazy, so you have to be careful and when and how you introduce fats.

My reasons for not liking eggplant is weird even to me. But there are a few ways I can eat it.
