Side Pannel
Braised Eggplant
Ingredients List
- 1 Eggplant
- 1 Or
- 2 Cloves garlic
- 3 tb Oil or lard
- 1 c Stock
- 2 tb Soy sauce
- 1/2 ts Salt
Directions
1. Peel eggplant; cut lengthwise in quarters, then crosswise in 1-inch
sections. Crush garlic.
2. Heat oil. Add garlic; stir-fry a few times. Add eggplant and stir-fry
gently to coat with oil (1 to 2 minutes).
3. Add stock, soy sauce and salt and bring to a boil. Then simmer, covered,
until done (10 to 15 minutes).
NOTE: Overcooking makes eggplant mushy. It's at its best when soft on the
outside, but still firm inside. VARIATIONS:
1. After step 2, add 1 tablespoon shrimp sauce and stir-fry 1 minute more.
Then pick up step 3, omit the soy sauce and salt.
2. In step 3, add 2 tablespoons of dried shrimp (which have been simmered
10 minutes in 1 pup of water). Then, during the last 5 minutes of cooking,
add the soy sauce and salt. (The shrimp water may be substituted for the
stock.)
