I’ll
be completely honest – I don’t seem to follow the trend of most food bloggers
who have extensive lists of things they’re planning on cooking next. I do have
a massive, extremely organized bundle of recipes that look tasty, but when it
comes down to it on Saturday mornings I tend to cook whatever shiny thing has
caught my fancy at the moment.
Call
me the magpie chef if you well.
In
any case, I saw this gorgeous graffiti eggplant at the supermarket one Saturday
morning and figured I’d buy it and figure out what to make with it when I got
home. I vaguely remember my mother making a dish with ground pork, eggplant,
and tofu so I picked up some ground turkey before I left (no, I don’t know why
either. It made sense at the time). I figured I could probably make something
tasty from the veggies in my fridge and the new ingredients I just picked up.
I
was correct. This is a great recipe. The ingredient list may look a little ridiculously
long, but I had pretty much all of it in my cupboard already. And it keeps
really well – I ate it for lunch everyday for a week.
Hope
you enjoy!
