THAI BASIL EGGPLANT



Thai Basil Eggplant image

Basil is my favorite herb and maybe a reason I love Thai food so much. The soups, curries, and stir-fries taste amazingly different with just few handfuls of sweet basil. This recipe is super easy and cooks in very little time. Serve with freshly cooked jasmine or basmati rice.

Time 25m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 teaspoon vegetable oil
1 Thai chile pepper, or more to taste
2 cloves garlic, minced
3 Chinese eggplants, cut into 1-inch cubes, or more to taste
½ cup water
1 teaspoon dark soy sauce
½ teaspoon white sugar
salt to taste
1 cup fresh basil leaves, roughly chopped

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add chile and garlic; cook and stir until garlic is golden, about 1 minute. Add eggplants to the fragrant garlic oil. Stir in water and cover. Cook, stirring every few minutes, until eggplants soften, 5 to 8 minutes.
  • Uncover and stir in soy sauce, sugar, and salt. Stir well and continue cooking until all the water has evaporated and eggplant is coated with sauce, about 5 minutes. Add basil leaves and stir once; remove from heat.

Categories     Vegetable

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 tablespoon peanut oil
2 -3 garlic cloves, minced
2 Japanese eggplants (or 1 big purple, peeled and cut into pieces)
2 tablespoons fish sauce
1 tablespoon sugar
1 bunch basil, preferably Thai basil, washed and stems removed
2 Thai chiles, minced (optional)

Steps:

  • Peel eggplant if desired (I don't). Cut into irregular shapes but same sizes. That makes them easier to turn and keeps them from sticking to the pan.
  • Heat wok over med-high heat. Add oil, peppers and garlic. Cook until garlic becomes lightly browned, 1-2 minutes.
  • Add eggplant and stir. Add 1/2 cup water cover and simmer 5 minutes, until eggplant has soaked up most of the water and becomes translucent. You may need to add more water as it cooks.
  • Add fish sauce and sugar. Stir gently. Turn off the heat and add the basil stir gently.
  • Serve immediately.
  • Really good with jasmine rice :O.
