Eggplant with Bacon Miso
Ingredients
2 slices Henderson’s Middle Bacon, chopped
⅓ cup white miso (fermented soybean paste)
3 Tbsp mirin (Japense rice wine)
4 eggplants
2 Tbsp vegetable oil
2 spring onions thinly sliced
Instructions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 220 degrees C. Cook the chopped bacon in a small saucepan over medium heat until golden brown. Remove the saucepan from the heat and whisk in the miso and mirin.
Step 2
Cut the eggplants in half lengthways. Place eggplants on a flat baking tray lined with baking paper. Using a pairing knife, score the eggplant in a hatchcross pattern and brush with oil. Evenly divide the bacon and miso mixture over the eggplants.
Step 3
Roast the eggplant for approximately 20 minutes or until tender. Top with spring onions to serve.
