Gong's Dish -- braising eggplant
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:
- Peel the eggplant and “spread” it like this:

In this way the dish won’t look that messy. - Then steam the eggplant for about 15 min.
- 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 - Fry the eggplants until they turn burnt yellow (I haven’t succeeded frying eggplants into this color, maybe I should add more oil?).
- Add the sauce into the pan, and stew it for some time over high heat to thicken the sauce.
- FINISHED
