Joost Nusselder
So it isn’t a surprise that Eggplant Omellete or Tortang Talong is one of the most loved breakfast dishes which is served with fried rice plus catsup on the side. Some also call it Eggplant Fritters.
The Tortang Talong Recipe has very simple ingredients and is quite easy to prepare. It only has Eggplant of course and Eggs.
The Eggplant can be prepared in 2 ways and it’s up to you to choose which one is your preference.
It can be boiled or grilled but many prefer grilling the eggplant because of the distinct taste it gives.
You have to choose medium-sized eggplant and fresh large eggs for the best tasting Tortang Talong ever.
Avoid overcooking the eggplant so it will stay juicy and after grilling or boiling, take off the skin before mixing the beaten egg.
Don’t put a lot of salt because it will not be satisfying to the palate if it becomes too salty.
Don’t over fry so the color of the egg will stay. This recipe doesn’t cost much because you will only need two ingredients though it may take a little patience in preparing it.
Preparation time is just about fifteen minutes while cooking time may take up to ten minutes only; depending of course on how many eggplants you will be cooking.
