Before the mil left for Ipoh last Sunday during the Hari Raya holidays, she cooked a huge pot of brinjal with minced meat. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The brinjals were from hubby’s central kitchen as he cleared his fridge. He usually clears the fridges at his kitchen when there’s a long break. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The portion of braised brinjal with minced meat was so big that I ate it for 4 consecutive meals! Sherilyn and Cass didn’t really like it as they commented that it was a tad greasy. Brinjals are like sponges, soaking up all the fat from the meat. Unless they’re steamed plain, when cooked with fatty meat or fried, brinjals can be really cloy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As I just hate to throw out good food, I ate the same dish throughout the Hari Raya holidays. Waste not, want not! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To minimize the effect of the grease in the dish, I plucked a handful of sweet basil from our balcony garden and transformed the dish into an aromatic salad. Now it’s not so cloy anymore and I managed to salvage the dish from being binned!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\" — My dinner for 4 meals. This is how little I eat for dinner on most days, sans any rice or carbs.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
