Yen Can Cook: Spicy Miso Grilled Eggplant
For a no-fuss meal, I’ll normally grill the chicken or fish fillet pair with some vegetables. For the meats, I’ll marinate them a couple of hours before grilling while the vegetables, I will just simply drizzle with olive oil. Sometimes I will slather the vegetables with concoction miso + chili sauce for a boost of flavors and heat. Here’s the simple recipe:-
2- 3 eggplant (you may also can substitute with carrot, zucchini, potato or even sweet potato)
1 tablespoon miso
1/2 tablespoon Lingham Thai Chili Sauce (or any other flavors such as Garlic Chili Sauce, Halia Chili Sauce or Sriracha Sauce)
2 teaspoon mirin
Olive oil
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Step 1: Cut eggplant into planks, 1/2-inch-thick.
Step 2: Combine miso, Lingham Chili Sauce and mirin. (amount of miso and chili sauce can be adjusted according to your preference)
Step 3: Drizzle olive oil on eggplant then brush the sauce concoction (Step 2) on the surface of eggplant.
Step 4: Arrange the eggplant on baking tray.
Step 5: Preheat oven 180°C, baked the eggplant for 4-5 minutes or until slightly browned. Serve.
HAPPY COOKING!
Sounds easy, I’d prefer the Japanese Eggplants (round-shaped), these local ones have thicker skins :/
The skin can eat as well, so no problem at all 🙂
研究研究,学习学习。
要多来坐坐哦, 谢谢~
simple and nice! substitute miso with sambal also can!
Thanks for your tips KY 🙂
looks very tempting but now sore throat…sobs sobs
Don’t eat too much durian and drink more water, get well soon ya 🙂
I would have thought that you’d put this in an aluminium foil tray…..so no washing needed…hehe! ;D I agree, eggplant works very well either grilled or baked.
Haha, that’s a very good idea for putting these in an aluminum foil LOL
great presentation and photography for this recipe! 🙂
Thanks Sean ^__^
all these tempting dishes you cook.. but never invite me… 😛
Haha, don’t say like that lah >_<
Not really a big fan of eggplant but the way you cooked and presented it looks so tempting and yummy
I know there are many people don’t like eggplant, include my hubby and daughter >_<
I have seeds for this. You want to try planting them? 😀
Of course I wanna try to grow them in my balcony garden 🙂
This is my favorite dish. Haha. My better half knows I like grilled eggplant and when we went to this tendon place she left the eggplant for me. I had a RM 63 bowl of tempura don. Too much fried stuff though, once in a while is okay. For daily eating, I would much prefer your dish.
Tempura eggplant is nice too but I scare fried eggplant, it tend to absorb oil >_<
