  • Author: Lana
  • Total Time: 0 hours

Ingredients

– 2 medium-sized eggplants
– 4 large eggs
– 1 cup minced pork (optional)
– 1 medium onion, finely chopped
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– Salt and pepper, to taste
– Cooking oil, for frying
– Fresh tomatoes, sliced (for garnish)


Instructions

To make Tortang Talong, follow these easy steps:

1. Roast Eggplants: Start by roasting the eggplants directly over an open flame or under a broiler until the skin is charred and the flesh is soft. Once done, let them cool slightly, then peel off the skin.

2. Prepare the Mixture: In a bowl, beat the eggs and season with salt and pepper. If using, add minced pork, chopped onions, and garlic, mixing well.

3. Flatten the Eggplants: Gently flatten the roasted eggplant with a fork, keeping it intact, and put them on a plate.

4. Coat Eggplants with Egg Mixture: Dip the flattened eggplants into the egg mixture, ensuring they are well-coated.

5. Heat Oil: In a skillet, heat a generous amount of cooking oil over medium heat.

6. Fry the Tortang Talong: Place the egg-coated eggplants in the hot oil. Fry for about 3-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown.

7. Drain Excess Oil: Once cooked, remove the Tortang Talong from the skillet and place them on paper towels to absorb excess oil.

8. Serve Warm: Garnish with sliced fresh tomatoes before serving.

These steps guide you effortlessly in creating this remarkable breakfast dish that will surely win hearts.
