Pork with Eggplant and Sesame Sauce

Another saucy recipe that I think tasted very well. I'm begging to love Sesame Seed Oil.

What I loved about this recipe is the incorporation of eggplant to the sauce. I missed the taste of eggplant that's why I love this dish!




Pork with Eggplant and Sesame Sauce

Ingredients

Pork Shoulder cut into cubes
Light soy sauce
Tapioca Starch or Corn Starch
Pepper
Eggplant or taling cut into cubes
Carrots, thinly sliced
Onion
Garlic
Oil

For the sauce:
One cup water or broth
Oyster sauce
Sugar
Sesame seed oil
Starch

Steps
Marinate pork cubes in light soy sauce and pepper for 15 minutes.

In a pan, heat oil. When smoking hot, drop eggplants and fry until golden. Remove talong from pan. Drop pork cubes in the same pan and fry until starch forms from the side if the pork or until pork turns golden.

Add garlic and onion to the pan and mix well. Add the cartoys and the pre-cooked eggplant and stir fry.

Mix all the sauce ingredients in the a bowl and pour sauce in the pan. Continue boiling hntil sauce thickens.

Enjoy!
