my fave is a dish from ilocos, which is a specialty of my mom, roasted, then sauteed in a little oil, along with garlic, onion, tomatoes, and fish paste, lastly, mixed with fresh egg when the dish is removed from heat. don’t know the right spelling, sir MM, correct me if I’m wrong, think it’s spelled poqui – poqui, good as accompaniement for some grilled meat or as a bruschetta topping then topped with cheese, hehehehe, can’t wait to ask my mom to cook it again!!!

Tortang talong is my favorite dish made out of eggplant. Grilled one or two until the skin turns black or when it is already easy for you to peel it off, and then dip them in a bowl of seasoned, battered raw eggs (2 pieces of eggs will do). And then fry ‘em one by one under medium fire and, voila!

I always crave for this!

Anybody here knows how to fry sliced eggplants the right way? Because when I do, they always shrink and the skin gets rubbery. They’re supposed to be a bit crispy, juicy and resilient. Please help? Thanks a lot.
