✦ Low calorie
✦ Fibre source
✦ Anthocyanin antioxidants
✦ Manganese source
Aubergine is a low-calorie fruiting vegetable with fibre, manganese, and skin pigments called anthocyanins that act as antioxidants. It contributes small amounts of potassium and folate, and its spongy flesh readily absorbs cooking fat.
🍳
Preparation note
Eat raw rarely; most varieties are best lightly cooked with the skin on to retain anthocyanins.
