- Step 1: Rinse the eggplants and make a few vertical cuts to prevent them from bursting while grilling. Place them in the microwave and grill for about 35 minutes. Every 10 minutes, turn the eggplants to ensure even cooking on both sides.
- Step 2: Heat 100ml cooking oil in a pan, add chopped green onions, and immediately turn off the heat. Then, add 1 tablespoon soy sauce to the same pan with green onions, stir briefly, and set aside. This mixture will be drizzled over the grilled eggplants when served.
- Step 3: Squeeze lime juice into a bowl, place the squeezed lime peel in a separate bowl. Add 2 tablespoons sugar, 1.5 tablespoons water, and 2 tablespoons fish sauce to the lime juice. Stir well and taste to adjust the flavor.
- Step 4: Once the eggplants are grilled, wait for them to cool, then use a knife to peel and cut them into small pieces. When enjoying the dish, evenly pour a mixture of lime-fish sauce and green onion oil over the microwave-grilled eggplants. This dish pairs exceptionally well with rice.
