Try this Sweet and Spicy Eggplant recipe:-

Ingredients
  • 1 plate of sliced eggplant / brinjals (approximately 2 cm thick. The eggplant / brinjals will shrink in size about 25% upon cooking)
  • 30 grammes of dried prawns (pre-soaked)
  • 4 cloves garlic (chopped)
  • 2 red or bird’s eye chilli (remove seeds and chopped)
  • 1/2 cup warm water
  • Palm Oil (for pan frying and stir-frying)
Seasoning
  • 3 teaspoons sugar or more
  • 2 pinches of salt
  • 3/4 tablespoon of dark soya sauce
Method
Heat up a frying pan and pan-fry the eggplants / brinjals in oil till the flesh is golden brown. Remove and set aside.


Heat up approximately 1 tablespoon oil in wok and saute dried prawns for about 30 seconds. Add garlic and chilli and continue to fry till aromatic. Return fried eggplants / brinjals to the wok and add seasoning whilst stirring well to coat eggplants / brinjals evenly. Sprinkle some warm water to keep the eggplants / brinjals moist and to prevent burning.


Dish up and serve.
