How to make eggplant stuffed with meat

Food shows are very popular nowadays, and I believe you must be envious of them in front of the TV. Now I will introduce to you a dish of eggplant stuffed with meat. You must try to make it yourself according to the steps below.

1. After washing the eggplant, wipe off the water to avoid oil spilling when put into the frying pan. Add sesame oil, some salt, soy sauce, pepper powder and cooking wine to the meat filling and stir in one direction for a while.

2.12 Cut the green onion into sections and the ginger into slices.

3.21 Cut the eggplant into two pieces, leaving some distance from the head but not cutting it off. Put the meat filling into the eggplant and apply some dry corn starch on the edge to prevent the meat filling from running out when squeezing.

4. Pour cold oil into a hot pan. When the oil is 50% hot, add the ginger slices first. Then, slide the eggplant from the edge of the pan into the oil pan to prevent the oil from splashing. Put the eggplant in quickly. Then you can cover the pan to prevent the oil from splashing.

5. Turn the eggplant over after squeezing it for a while. If you can't control it well, you can use chopsticks in one hand and a spatula in the other hand to turn it over. After turning it over, you can cover the pot.

6. After squeezing all sides, when the eggplant becomes soft, you can add the scallion segments and some water. It is best to cover half of the eggplant with water, but do not cover the entire eggplant. The eggplant is almost ready at this time, and too much water will waste fire.

7. When stewing, use medium or low heat and stew slowly. This way the meat flavor will penetrate into the eggplant and the meat aroma will be very strong. Turn the eggplant over while stewing to make it cook faster and more thoroughly.

8. The soup is almost done. If you don’t like too much soup, simmer it a little longer. It would be better if you leave some soup to soak the rice. When the dish is ready, turn off the heat and serve.

Whether you have ever liked cooking or not, or even know how to cook, now that you have seen the specific method of stuffing eggplant with meat, you will definitely gain something from it. So, put away your worries and take action now.
