How to choose fresh ingredients
How to choose fresh eggplants
- Fresh eggplants are those that have a shiny, even color, smooth skin, a fresh green stem tightly attached to the fruit.
- Choose eggplants that feel firm when held, and when gently pressed, they should feel solid, not soft and mushy.
- Avoid choosing eggplants with wrinkled skin, bruises, or scratches, and wilted stems as these are low-quality eggplants.
How to choose quality pork
- Choose pork that has a bright color, light pink or light red, slightly firm texture, and a dry surface.
- Fresh pork has a distinctive meat aroma, and when pressed, it should have good elasticity, with the meat and fat separate but sticking together.
- Avoid buying pork that has a pale color or is too dark, has an unusual fishy smell, or shows signs of sliminess as this indicates spoiled pork, affecting the quality of the dish.
Tools needed
How to prepare Fried Stuffed Eggplant
-
Prepare the eggplant
Wash the eggplant thoroughly with water, then use a knife to cut it into round slices and soak it in diluted saltwater for about 15 minutes.
After soaking, use a spoon to scoop out the inner flesh, and continue soaking the skin and the flesh separately in fresh diluted saltwater for about 10 minutes.
Finally, remove the skin and flesh of the eggplant, rinse them with clean water, and let them drain. Chop the eggplant flesh finely to mix with the meat filling.

Prepare the ingredients
Wash the meat, then put it into a meat grinder and grind it finely. If you don’t have a meat grinder, you can chop the meat finely!
Wash the carrot, peel it, and then shred it finely or dice it small.
Next, peel 3 cloves of garlic and chop them finely. Wash the green onions and then chop them small.
-
Mix the meat filling
Mix the minced meat with the finely chopped eggplant core. Then, add the chopped green onions, carrots, and garlic, and mix well to combine the ingredients.
Next, season the mixture with 1 teaspoon of seasoning, 1 teaspoon of monosodium glutamate, 2 teaspoons of fish sauce, 1/2 teaspoon of ground pepper, 1 egg, and 1 teaspoon of cornstarch. Finally, mix well to ensure the meat filling absorbs the seasoning.
