How to make it

  • fill fry pan to 1/4 inch high with oil.
  • slice eggplant in half and score both ways but try really hard to puncture the skin.
  • place eggplant face down in oil antil the eggplant sucks up the oil and expands to open up the gaps where the eggplant was scored.
  • Boil kettle and add water to miso paste.
  • The miso should be the consistency of cream, not too thick, but thin enough so that it can flow between and in the spaces of the eggplant.
  • The paste should be able to stay on top of the eggplant to cover the cut face.
  • Place in oven (180 celsius)
  • Have some miso left over or mix up some more, check the eggplant every 15-20 minutes and replenish the miso on top.
  • After about an hour the eggplant should have a slight miso crust but be very soft and tender inside.
  • Serve on top of rice and with some greens of your liking.( Braised Shitake Mushrooms complement the dish well

    I love Miso and have used it often in soups and as a flavoring for the vegetables in my spring rolls.
