Air Fried Eggplant by Lena Lai



Ingredients:
1 big brinjal or 2 medium size brinjals

Method:
(1) Cut brinjals into long strips (abt 1 1/2" each).
(2) Spray with oil, AF at 180 for 15mins (every 5 mins, shake the brinjals in the AF n spray oil).
(3) Cook till 1/2 brown (dun cook too long, else chao tarcoz need to saute later). The texture of the brinjals are springy and dry, like an eraser. no worries.
(4) saute 3 tbsp of chopped (coarsely) dried shrimps till golden brown, add in chopped garlic till golden brown.
(5) pour the air fried brinjals in and stir fry for awhile.
(6) add a bit of water, abt 2 tbsp and continue to toss n stir fry. now u could see tat the brinjals are softening and a little bit moist (not wet), if still too dry, add another tbsp of water. lastly put in chili, fresh chopped chillies (i used chili flakes), spring onion (i omitted coz malas) and fried shallots (a must) and serve.
