Steamed eggplant ~ less oil and soft
Overview
I referred to Kaixin Mihe’s recipe, thanks for sharing. I'm on a diet, so it's relatively light. The eggplant doesn't need to be soaked in oil. It's directly blanched in water and steamed in a pot.

Okay~ The eggplant can be soaked in oil, making it softer and more flavorful. I was afraid of getting fat, so I steamed it with less oil. In fact, the texture is quite good this way, there is not so much oil, the soup in the eggplant is steamed out, it is not greasy, and it is just right for soaking rice. You can make it just like that without adding rice pepper chili sauce. You can also add the proportion of garlic or put onion foam in it. Coriander should not be omitted to enhance the flavor.
