I believe many loves brinjals but put off preparing a dish with it especially when using stir fry
method. Most times, the sliced brinjals are deep fried or more oil is needed to stir fry them. I, for
one would look for an easier and healthier cooking method. The best way, I discovered is by steaming the brinjals with
a minced meat paste.
Instead of steaming everything together, you can
stir fry the minced meat paste ingredients and spread in over the
steamed brinjals. But, this way you
would need some oil to fry the meat paste.
This dish is
tasty, delicious and a good dish
suitable for both the old and young. The brinjals look firm but it is soft and sweet.
Add seasoning sparingly as the soybean post are sometimes quite salty.
