Pad-Ma-Kuer
Serve: 2
Ingredients:
250 gram Mince pork
1 Aubergine – wash and cubed
3 Garlic clove – finely chopped
1 Green chilli – finely chopped
3 tbs Vegetable oil
1 tbs Oyster sauce
1 tbs Sugar
1 tsp Sesame seed (optional)
5-6 Coriander leaf (optional)
1/2 tbs Fish sauce
1/4 tbs Dark soya sauce
100ml Water
-Heat the vegetable oil. Then add the garlic and green chilli into the same pan, stir fry until the garlic turns a slightly golden colour (but not burnt).
-Add the mince pork, dark soya sauce and 1/2 tbs of sugar into the same pan and stir-fry until the mince pork is cooked.
-Add the aubergine, fish sauce, oyster sauce and the rest of the sugar. Gently stir-fry until the aubergine softens/cooked (approx 15-18 minutes). Add the water little by little in between to prevent the ingredients getting burnt.
-Garnish Pad-Ma-Kuer with sesame seeds and coriander leaves. Serve this delicious aubergine and mince pork dish with Thai Jasmine Rice.
Tips:
-Stir-fry is all about timing make sure you put the right ingredients in at the right time and be patient.
-Adjust the heat accordingly; turn the heat up when you first put the meat or vegetable into the pan. Turn the heat down if you think the mixture might get burnt quickly. Pad-Ma-Kuer is great as a quick and easy mid week dinner, enjoy.
