I saw in my refrigerator that there are still 2 pieces of eggplant. So I cooked a very simple eggplant dish for my breakfast earlier. That dish is Tortang Talong.
Tortang Talong is simply eggplant with egg. Usually people will grill the eggplant before frying it with egg. I find it really hard to grill so I boil the eggplants instead. It’s actually pretty easier for me and I’m sure that the eggplants are cooked!
