Braised Eggplant Recipe Six
[Ingredients] Eggplant, cilantro, garlic cloves, soy sauce, sugar, salt, water, oil.
[Method] 1. First peel the eggplants and cut into chunks. Put them into a large bowl, evenly sprinkle a layer of salt over them, stirring while sprinkling. Then set them aside for later use. 2. At this time, you can peel the garlic and wash the cilantro. Cut the garlic cloves into minced garlic and put them in a bowl, pour in a little soy sauce. Add a little white sugar and water to make up a full bowl. Chop the cilantro. After about 30 minutes, the work that requires strength should begin. 3. Grab the eggplant in the large bowl and squeeze hard, trying to squeeze out as much water as possible. The drier you squeeze it, the more fragrant the braised eggplant will be. When the oil is 80 percent hot, put the eggplant, squeezed into balls, into the wok. Stir-fry until the eggplant changes color, then pour in the sauce you just prepared according to the secret recipe. After it comes to a boil, turn to low heat, and remember to keep tossing it. Otherwise the eggplant will surely be like Lord Bao on one side and like Cao Cao on the other. When the sauce has reduced almost fully, turn off the heat and pour in the chopped cilantro, toss the wok a few times, and plate it.
