Today I will show you one of the easy and simple recipes for making eggplant. This can replace you enjoying non-vegan dishes at home. Well, being inspired by social media made me have to try this dish at home.

I also want to take part in the challenge from Hive Top Cheff with a vegan theme this time. This is something extraordinary, I am used to serving vegan food even though I am not a vegan. It would be fun to follow the theme this time, although it is far from perfect with simple dishes.

At first I was hesitant about what dish I wanted to serve, but my choice was eggplant. Because in my opinion, eggplant's texture will be very similar to meat if it is processed into a perfect dish, right?

For those of you who don't like dishes that are too sweet, you can skip the granulated sugar and just use soy sauce for your diet which is low in sugar. Well, it's very easy, isn't it?
