Ginataang Talong with Tofu & Malunggay

I’m a super fan of Panlasang Pinoy. All of the recipes I adapted from the site were all successful so I tend to try more and more. Since I have eggplants in the fridge, I tried out Ginataang Talong with Tofu & Malunggay recipe today.

The dish tasted okay but not my favorite. I guess I’ll stick with real coconut milk and not powdered mix. I modified the recipe below to use only 2 pieces eggplant, I used up 3 in this dish and realized it’s too much. If you like a saucy dish, stick with 2 pieces, The ratio of protein to sauce is perfect that way. This Ginataang Talong with Tofu & Malunggay is definitely healthy with veggies eggplant & malunggay and the protein is tofu.
