1. Add salt to the pork filling, light soy sauce, cooking wine, chicken essence, an egg, chopped green onion, minced ginger, white pepper and mix well (additional saltiness according to personal taste)
2. Add two teaspoons of starch to the prepared meat filling and continue to mix well
3. After adding starch, stir the minced meat in one direction.
4. Long eggplant cut into thick sections
5. Cut another knife in the middle, don’t cut it, form an eggplant box
6. Stuff the meat into the eggplant box
7. All the eggplant boxes are stuffed and set aside
8. Two tablespoons of ordinary flour, add appropriate amount of water to make a thicker batter, and the consistency can hold the batter.
9. Eggplant batter
10. Heat the pan with cold oil (add more oil) and lower the heat into the eggplant box and start frying. Don't turn the eggplant box that has just been cooked. Turn it over again when the bottom surface is mature.
11. Since the stuffed meat in the eggplant box is relatively thick, it is best to cover the pot for two minutes to make sure the middle is well cooked
12. Fry until golden on both sides (the façade of the eggplant box should also be fried until it is fried)
13. Leave the bottom oil in the pot, add two spoons of Pixian hot sauce and stir fry to get the red oil
14. Add light soy sauce, vinegar, sugar, chicken essence, (salt is not added, because Pixian hot sauce is very salty) ginger, cooking wine, appropriate amount of water to make a fish-flavored juice, add water and starch to thicken the soup before serving
15. Pour it directly on the egg box
16. Sprinkle some chopped green onions
17. This tempting eggplant box is complete
18. When frying the eggplant box, use a low heat, otherwise the surface will be battered and the middle will not be cooked. Pay attention to this.
