Tortang Talong - Eggplant Omelet

my nanay made us extra torta filling and bought us eggplants before she left. so i made tortang talong.

and boiled eggplants do not look very pretty. hee.

1. Boil Japanese eggplant










2. Boil until eggplants are soft/tender ---usually the skin turns brownish color







3. Using a knife slit open halfway along the body of eggplant and spread out and flatten its meat and set aside.











4. Put torta filling on eggplant.

Torta filling consist of: sauteeing garlic & onions, ground beef and sliced potatoes... seasoned with fish sauce or salt and lots of ground pepper









5. Scramble eggs and season with salt, garlic powder, pepper & pour over eggplant & torta dish --- spoon some of the scrambled eggs over the eggplant so that it's completely covered with the scrambled eggs










6. Fry in a pan both sides (careful when flipping it over) -













Serve with rice. We like to put Sriracha on it for that extra kick. :) --- Since it's a dry meal... i usually make soup to accompany it (sometimes a tamarind soup "sinigang" or just your basic egg drop ramen, simple simple).
