New to eat a regular dish-eggplant blooming. Eggplant is the most common home-cooked dish, but apart from oil and sauce, do you have any new ways to eat it? We think that eggplant is not delicious without oil! In fact, steamed eggplant is also delicious! It's very healthy. In the past, we used to make eggplants with oil and braise them.
