Ingredients

Servings
  • canola oil
  • 2 eggplant large, stems trimmed and cut into 2-inch lengths
  • 1 onion small, peeled and sliced thinly
  • 2 cloves garlic peeled and minced
  • ½ pound pork belly cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 2 tablespoons shrimp paste
  • 1 tomato large, chopped
  • ¼ cup vinegar
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 Thai Chili pepper minced
  • salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. 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.
  2. In the skillet, heat about 1 tablespoon of oil. Add onions and garlic and cook until softened.
  3. Add pork and cook until lightly browned.
  4. Add shrimp paste and cook, stirring regularly, until it darkens and pork begins to render fat.
  5. Add tomatoes and continue to cook, mashing with back of spoon, until softened.
  6. Add vinegar and bring to a boil, uncovered and without stirring, for about 3 to 5 minutes.
  7. Add water, sugar, and chili peppers.
  8. Lower heat, cover, and cook until pork is fork-tender.
  9. Add eggplant and continue to cook until liquid is reduced.
  10. 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.
