Grilled Eggplant with Black Beans and Garlic Sauce

Overview

The first time I ate grilled eggplant was when I went to make skewers with a friend. I was stunned by the aroma of the friend's grilled eggplant. When I came back, we didn't have a charcoal stove for grilling skewers, but we had an oven. And I usually like to use all available kitchen utensils when cooking. For example, this eggplant recipe made in the oven is just like using a wok to cook braised pork. It was done in a hurry, and the taste is not inferior to that of a charcoal stove. Then simmer the rice in a pot, and the meat, vegetables and staple food are basically cooked at the same time, which is especially suitable for office workers.

Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Wash the eggplant.

   

2. 2 Use a knife to cut 3/4 from the middle without cutting.

   

3. 3 First put it in the microwave and heat it on high heat for 5 minutes to allow the water in the eggplant to evaporate quickly and shorten the baking time.

   

4. 4 Line a baking sheet with tin foil, place the microwave-heated eggplant on the baking sheet, put it in the oven, and bake at 200 degrees for 10 minutes.

   

5. 5 At this time, press the garlic cloves into a puree, add salt, sugar, olive oil, sesame oil and Laoganma hot sauce (you can omit the hot sauce if you don't like spicy food).

   

6. 6 Take the eggplants that have been roasted for 10 minutes from the oven and fill the middle of the eggplants with the prepared garlic sauce.

   

7. 7 Then put it in the oven at 200-220 degrees and bake for 10 minutes. My eggplants are too tender and have a lot of moisture, so I use 220 degrees for this step. Therefore, the specific temperature needs to be observed according to the condition of the eggplant.
