Instructions
- In a skillet over medium heat, heat about 2 tablespoons of the oil. Add eggplant and cook until lightly browned, turning as needed. Remove from pan and drain on paper towels. Eggplants soak up a lot of oil, you might need to add more oil during frying.
- In the skillet, heat about 1 tablespoon of oil. Add onions and garlic and cook until softened.
- Add pork and cook until lightly browned.
- Add shrimp paste and cook, stirring regularly, until it darkens and pork begins to render fat.
- Add tomatoes and continue to cook, mashing with back of spoon, until softened.
- Add vinegar and bring to a boil, uncovered and without stirring, for about 3 to 5 minutes.
- Add water, sugar, and chili peppers.
- Lower heat, cover, and cook until pork is fork-tender.
- Add eggplant and continue to cook until liquid is reduced.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot
Notes
- Keep the cut eggplant in a bowl of water until ready to cook to prevent darkening.
- Allow the vinegar to boil uncovered and without stirring for a few minutes before adding the water to cook off the strong acid taste.
- Do NOT skip the sugar as it helps balance the overall flavor of the dish.
- If using sauteed shrimp paste that's already sweetened, do a taste test and adjust or omit the sugar.
