Online recipe review : vegan dish

  My name is Yume. I am going to talk about a dish that I cooked. l cooked Soy-Glazed Eggplant Donburi. It is a dish which eggplant  that  is baked and  combined with ginger flavored sweet and salty sauce put on rice. I hadn’t known how to make it. So I read “Just one cookbook “.This recipe link is https://www.justonecookbook.com/soy-glazed-eggplant-donburi/ It is a recipe site that many Japanese recipes is posted. This site’s  recipe are written by Nami who is Japanese blogger. I decided this recipe because l and my family love Eggplants and photo of Soy-Glazed Eggplant Donburi looked very delicious. 

 Before I made Soy-Glazed Eggplant Donburi, I read the recipe carefully. I looked up cooking  terms that I did not not know like tsp, tbsp in dictionary. It was partly difficult for me to read it. I spent more than 30 minutes to understand the recipe. After that, I went to supermarket to buy ingredients. Ingredient of this recipe that I had to buy  was few. But I could not buy cornstarch in supermarket near my home. So I used photo starch. I can gather other ingredients. It cost about 1000 yen four people.

 

Soy-Glazed Eggplant Donburi do not need so many ingredient. So I could reduce cost. And cooking process is not difficult  for me who don't cook everyday. I am not used to cook. So I took an hour to cook it.  But this recipe says that it will take 20 minutes to cook. It is short time. This three is good points of Soy-Glazed Eggplant Donburi.

 But l have difficult points of this recipe .It is difficult to adjust heat control. This recipe say that please bake on medium heat for 3 to 4 minutes. I divided into four times baking eggplants because there’s a lot of eggplants. First time, I followed this recipe. But I burned eggplants a little. So I made smaller strength of heat next time. 

This photo is my making process.  

It is when I sprinkled potato starch on the eggplant.

 It is when I baked one side of eggplant.

It is when I pour sauce.

It is complete.

I finally ate Soy-Glazed Eggplant Donburi. It is very delicious. Ginger flavored sweet and salty sauce was just light. But It was a little greasy. So perhaps it was good pour a little less oil. 

 In addition to how to cook Soy-Glazed Eggplant Donburi, Soy-Glazed Eggplant Donburi's recipe has explanation of  Soy-Glazed Eggplant Donburi and  link that how to cook delicious dishes that we eat with Soy-Glazed Eggplant Donburi.

 good point

 This recipe was easy to understand. Because photo of all making process is posted on the site. So I was easy to know that I have to bake eggplants until how much color.  This recipe also have Soy-Glazed Eggplant Donburi nutrition. If you are worry nutrition like calories and sodium etc... ,this recipe help your health meals.

bad point

 Nami's other recipe has cooking  video.  But this recipe does not have it. I think that it is easy to understand  the recipe by watching cooking video more than  photos of cooking process. So I wished this recipe had had the video of making process too.

  My family tell me it tastes very good. So I was very happy. I think it was a success and I give this recipe five stars.   This recipe stands out the taste of eggplant. So I want to  recommend this recipe to people who love eggplants and  cooking summer because Summer is the best season to harvest eggplants. Also, l  learned that cooking is not easy and takes time but it ii enjoyable. So I want to make other dishes in this recipe site.

And there were lot of kinds of cake that were very cute and delicious. So I ate 3 plates of cake. I ate cakes the most in three. We had a lively conversation because we met the first time in two months. So it was very enjoyable!!
