Eggplant Ala-me / KBB / Cooking Competition

Another posting for KBB,this time is my task for cooking competition.
I choose my favourite recipe, which created by me
Story behind this eggplant is sometimes I miss Balado terong / Saute Eggplant with red chili but as the difficulty to find the red chili here in Panama a.k.a cabe merah keriting, then I try to find the perfect way to eat this eggplant as my hubby not really happy eating eggplant.

Luckyly,with this creation, he could enjoy it. Usually I cooked this eggplant, and serve it with pasta or pita bread. And this is also another option for my lazy weekend, avoiding washing lots plates etc.

Toffu-Mushroom Curry

I used Lee Kum Kee curry paste for this dish. Its nice to have this ready made sauce. Helping me a lot while have to cook in a rush.



Always put garlic,ginger, onion and add chili if in the mood for spicy dish.
Mushroom for additional,salt pepper and for me green pepper is the must ingredient for this kind of curry.
