Broil the eggplant over a direct flame, or bake in a pan lined with aluminum foil in a 450 degree F. oven, turning once or twice to bake evenly on all sides, until the eggplant is soft and the skin separates from the eggplant. Remove the skin; chop the eggplant pulp in a chopping bowl until very fine. Add the lemon juice and blend well. Mix in the salt and pepper, minced onion, and minced green pepper. Taste and adjust the seasoning; chill. Before serving, add the oil and stir until well mixed. Serve on salad greens. Garnish with tomato wedges. Serves 3 to 4.
