How are you enjoying this summer/winter time? These days, I can't sleep well at night. The temperature around Tokyo goes up to around 35 degrees every day and doesn't cool down so much at night. Around 35 degrees doesn't sound as hot as some other dry places like southern Europe or Australia, but the actual feeling is worse in Japan because of the high humidity. I just want to escape to somewhere in the southern hemisphere!
In the hot climate, sometimes you don't feel like eating or even cooking! So today I will cook a simple and cold dish with eggplant.
Ingredients:
eggplant
ginger
soy sauce (1tbsp)
mirin (2tbsps)
soup (1cup)
1- Cut the eggplant roughly, cut the surface a little and boil. When it's cooked, wash it with cold water.
2- Boil the soup, soy sauce and mirin. Add 1.
3- When the eggplants are boiled, put it in the fridge to cool down.
4- Put the grazed ginger on top before eating.
