Brinjals or eggplant, is grown worldwide, and is related to tomato and potato. This is one of my favorite vegetable. I am trying out this Thai recipe and it's yummylicious. Here is the simple recipe to share with everyone who loves brinjals.
Ingredients: (Serves: 2)
1 brinjals (cut in a slant) - not in the picture
1/2 cup minced pork
2 cloves garlic (roughly chopped)
1 large chili (sliced)
1 bird's eye chili (sliced)
A handful of basil leaves
1 tbsp. fish sauce
1 1/2 tbsp. oyster sauce
Dashes of water (add slightly more if you prefer the brinjals to be more soft)
1 1/2 tbsp. cooking oil
Methods:
- Heat oil in a wok over medium high heat. Add garlic and stir-fry until fragrant, then add minced pork and fry until almost change color. Add brinjals and both chilies and stir-fry for another minute. Stir through the fish sauce, oyster sauce and dashes of water and cover with a lid to allow the brinjals to steam and soften. Remove the lid, taste for correct seasoning, (if more seasoning is needed, add either fish sauce or oyster sauce), and add the basil leaves and toss to wilt the leaves. Remove from heat and serve with freshly cooked white rice.
I adapted this recipe from 'Marion's Kitchen.com' with slight amendments to suit my taste bud and cooking preference.
