Eggplants, so happy in almond sauce…<\/p>\n
I adore Indian eggplants, Japanese eggplants, Thai eggplants, Chinese eggplants, Korean eggplants, American eggplants, white eggplants, alright the bottom line I just love eggplants. I’ve gone crazy for almost all eggplant dishes, whether it’s eggplant rice<\/a>, eggplant roast, grilled eggplant or stuffed eggplants<\/a>.<\/p>\n This morning, I went for my weekend grocery shopping. I piled up my cart with fresh veggies, grains, chicken and some cosmetic stuffs too \ud83d\ude42 This time I didn’t even look at the garden center as I cannot afford any more plants. After getting back home, first thing I had to do was cook some lunch for my starving hubby who looked so pale and exhausted. Well, I wasn’t in the mood for any major cooking, so whipped up chicken salad very quickly. After having lunch, I peeped into my refrigerator and my eyes fell on the gorgeous small eggplants. I couldn’t resist cooking with those right away. I took it out of the fridge and placed it on the island. I didn’t want to try any of the dishes that I had already tried. I got busy searching my pantry for some good ingredients to combine with eggplant. I kept looking at the jar of almonds and thought how about almond eggplant??? Sounded lil weird to me first, then this idea kept ringing in my head. Well, I went with my instinct, almond eggplant it is!!!<\/p>\n When the almond eggplant was all cooked to perfection, I couldn’t wait even for a minute to taste it. I did burn my\u00a0tongue\u00a0a bit, but it was worth it as this almond eggplant tasted delicious. I even gave some to my man who was busy watching TV, he tasted it and gave a thumbs up.<\/p>\n Eggplant in Almond sauce<\/strong><\/p>\n Ingredients<\/strong><\/p>\n To roast:<\/strong><\/p>\n For cooking:<\/strong><\/p>\n Instruction To roast and grind:<\/strong><\/p>\n Making almond eggplant:<\/strong><\/p>\n Tips:<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Eggplants, so happy in almond sauce… I adore Indian eggplants, Japanese eggplants, Thai eggplants, Chinese eggplants, Korean eggplants, American eggplants, white eggplants, alright the bottom line I just love eggplants.
