My first specialty dishes: Braising eggplant…

Even thoug it doesn’t look very tasty, it is really delicious especially when you eat it with rice.
Cookbook:

  1. Peel the eggplant and “spread” it like this:

    In this way the dish won’t look that messy.
  2. Then steam the eggplant for about 15 min.
  3. As for the sauce, there are two versions:
    _ For the light version,
    soy sauce 2 spoons
    oyster sauce 1 spoon
    rice wine 1 spoon
    dark soy sauce 1 spoon (or less)
    honey 1 spoon
    white sugar, salt depends
    Starch water 1 bowl
    _ For the heavy flavor version,
    soy sauce 2 spoons
    oyster sauce 1 spoon
    dark soy sauce 1 spoon (or less)
    honey 1 spoon
    white sugar, salt depends
    Coca Cola (NO PEPSI, thanks!) 1 bowl
  4. Fry the eggplants until they turn burnt yellow (I haven’t succeeded frying eggplants into this color, maybe I should add more oil?).
  5. Add the sauce into the pan, and stew it for some time over high heat to thicken the sauce.
  6. FINISHED
