- NOTES : This is a favorite dish in my family, where eggplant is eaten in some form almost every day. The eggplant in this dish tends to be a bit
- "crunchy." If you wish to have a softer feel (as in Chinese dishes) then simmer for a little longer - 5min max! Also, for fire-lovers, you can double the chili content without upsetting the flavor of this dish. (Just make sure you serve it with lots of rice and iced water!)
