Grilled Eggplants

I cooked grilled eggplants from the last harvest several days ago. Eggplant is a typical summer vegetables here and would grow much slow at present. The fruits would become a bit harder and bear seeds in them. I love this simple but still quite delicious dish so much. It is a reason why I would grow eggplants every summer.

Eggplants are grilled with sesami oil. When they are well cooked, the seasonings are added, like rice vinegar, soy sauce, sugar and a bit of ginger and garlic. 

Eggplants absorb any oil and it tastes sour sweet in the back of seasami oil. It takes only a few minutes to make this dish. My wife is always surprised how fast it is done.  　  

Freshely harvested eggplants are the best material for this recipe. 

And this dish told us summer was gone for now.
