Sautéed Eggplant And Pork In Tomato Sauce On Rice Recipes

Steps:

• Sauté eggplant in olive oil on medium heat until slightly translucent.
• Add onion and pork, stirring until the meat is lightly browned.
• Stir in tomato paste, garlic, oregano, basil, pepper, soy sauce, brown sugar, tomatoes, and tomato sauce.
• Bring to a gentle boil, then turn down heat and simmer for at least 15 minutes.
• Place a thin layer of rice on serving plate.
• Ladle eggplant mixture on top.
• Sprinkle with Parmesan and garnish with parsley sprig.

Steps:

• Bring water and rice to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender and water has been absorbed, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add mushrooms and onion and saute for 3 minutes. Add eggplant, zucchini, and 1/2 teaspoon soy sauce; cook and stir for 5 minutes. Add tomato but do not stir in. Sprinkle in peanuts, cover, and cook for 4 to 5 minutes.
• Put rice onto serving plates and add extra soy sauce if desired. Top with vegetable mixture.

Steps:

• Place the eggplant in a large, wide bowl. Pour in the water, add 1/4 c salt, and stir together. Cover with a plate and place a weight, such as a can of tomatoes, on top of the plate to keep the eggplant submerged. Soak the eggplant in the salted water for 1-2 hours. Drain and pat dry.
• Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat and add the onion. Cook, stirring often, until tender, abut 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook for 30 seconds to a minute, until fragrant.
• Add the eggplant and turn the heat to medium-high. Cook, stirring often, until the eggplant is browned and just about tender, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Add the balsamic vinegar and stir for a minute, then add the tomatoes. When the tomatoes begin to cook quickly, reduce the heat to medium. Cook, stirring often, for 10 minutes, until the tomatoes have cooked down a bit. Cover the pan, reduce the heat to medium-low, and continue to cook for another 5 to 10 minutes, until the eggplant is very tender and the mixture is thick. Taste and adjust seasonings. Stir in the basil.
• Transfer to a serving dish. Cool slightly and serve. This is excellent at room temperature.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a heavy saucepan over medium high heat.
• Sauté onion and garlic 3-4 minutes or until onion is softened.
• Stir in next 4 ingredients (eggplant, tomato, bay leaf & thyme) and mix thoroughly.
• Cover saucepan and simmer 3 minutes.
• Stir in remaining ingredients (rice & chicken stock) and salt and pepper to taste and return to a boil.
• Immediately reduce heat to low.
• Cover and simmer 20-25 minutes or until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed.
• For vegetarian do not use Chicken stock.
