INSTRUCTIONS
Heat oven to 250 degrees. If using taco shells, separate and place on baking sheet. If using tortillas, wrap in foil. Bake taco shells or tortillas until heated through; about 10 minutes. Or, wrap tortillas in damp paper towels and heat in a microwave oven on high (100 percent power) for 30 to 60 seconds. Meanwhile, in small bowl, whisk together salt, garlic, soy sauce, vinegar and sesame oil. Set aside. Preheat stove-top grill or griddle according to manufacturer's directions. Brush eggplant lightly with oil and place, oiled side down, on grill. Cook over medium-high heat for 4 to 5 minutes. Brush tops with more oil, turn slices and cook until eggplant is golden and flesh is tender, about 5 minutes. Transfer eggplant to a platter and brush with garlic sauce, then cut each slice into three. To assemble, in each taco shell or tortilla, place 2 to 3 pieces eggplant. Garnish with dollop of yogurt and sprinkling of sesame seeds. Wrap tortilla around filling ingredients.
