Hello everyone! Among the vegetables rich in vitamins and minerals, eggplant is one of them.
Eating eggplant helps improve digestion, protects against heart disease and cancer, and also strengthens bones and joints. In addition, it's a great remedy that boosts brain function as well.
I'd like to share how to grill this healthy food in an even healthier way.
Ingredients
- 2 eggplants
- 1/2 tablespoon fish sauce
- 2 teaspoons lime juice
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon water
- 1/2 teaspoon finely minced garlic
- 1 fresh green chili (thinly sliced)
- 2 1/2 tablespoons oil
- 5 stalks spring onion (thinly sliced)
Step-by-step instructions
1. Preheat the grill pan. Poke holes in the eggplants using a toothpick or fork. Then grill them over the fire for about 15 to 20 minutes.
You'll need to turn the eggplants every 5 to 6 minutes.
2. While the eggplants are grilling, mix together the fish sauce, lime juice, sugar, water, garlic, and fresh green chili thoroughly.
3. To make the spring onion oil, heat a pan. Add the oil. Once the oil is hot, add the spring onions and fry until they soften.
4. Once the eggplants are grilled, place them on a chopping board and remove the skins.
You can cut the eggplant into bite-sized pieces, or leave it whole as it is.
5. Place the grilled eggplant onto a plate. Then pour the spring onion oil over it. If you like, you can sprinkle peanuts or sesame seeds on top.
And there you have it - a delicious grilled eggplant dish!
