Fried eggplant with minced meat sauce

Overview

Our sister Xiao [Mama] doesn’t like eating eggplant very much, so when we went to the supermarket together that day, I bought it and she was mumbling about it. What she didn’t expect was that after I made it, she would eat it all several times. So every time I had a guest, sister Xiao would cut and soak the eggplant for me in advance. Every time I made it and posted it on social media, people always asked me how to make it, so I made it this time. In fact, you can check out my previous recipes, there are a lot about eggplant

Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 I always feel that this kind of thin and long eggplant is more delicious and has a more tender texture than the big oval eggplant that ages easily

   

2. 2 Cut it into long and even lengths, then soak it in water. Add a little salt in the water otherwise it will turn black easily. If you don’t soak it...

   

3. 3 Peel the onion and cut into small pieces

   

4. 4 Chop garlic into fine pieces

   

5. 5 Same as above for ginger

   

6. 6 Chop onions into small pieces

   

7. 7 Chop the lean meat into minced meat, add a little light soy sauce, pepper, cornstarch and cooking oil, mix well and marinate for a while

   

8. 8 Add oil to the pot, heat it to 60% heat, add the drained eggplant, wait for about one minute, then take it out and drain the oil

   

9. 9 Leave a little oil at the bottom of the pot, add minced garlic and ginger over low heat and stir-fry until fragrant

   

10. 10 If you like spicy food, add dried chili peppers, and then the marinated minced meat will spread out quickly

    

11. 11 Add chopped onions and saute until fragrant

    

12. 12 A spoonful of bean paste or chili sauce will do. Stir-fry the red oil over low heat

    

13. 13 Add the fried eggplant and stir-fry until the eggplant is evenly coated with the sauce

    

14. 14 A quarter spoon of light soy sauce

    

15. 15 A splash of balsamic vinegar

    

16. 16 Steamed fish drum with a little oil, no need for salt, these are all salty, then a little sugar, a little chicken powder

    

17. 17 Finally, sprinkle a handful of chopped green onions and take it out of the pot

    

18. 18 Let me remind you, cook a little more rice before cooking this dish, otherwise it won’t be enough, haha
