Tips

1. The Hangzhou eggplants I used are the long and thin ones. However, eggplants are more glutinous nowadays and a bit more expensive. I bought them for 3 yuan per pound.

2. After the minced meat is coated with starch, it will be more tender when fried because it has absorbed enough water.

3. I used the same ingredients to make a minced meat eggplant before. The eggplant was steamed, which looked more beautiful and tasted more refreshing. This minced meat and eggplant is more flavorful, especially with rice, and has a unique flavor. Two same ingredients, different methods, the results are different.

4. Eggplant absorbs a lot of oil, so you can use a little more oil when frying.
