<Ingredients>
2 nasu Japanese or 1 medium/small (150-170 g) Chinese eggplant (226 g Chinese eggplant in photo; 3/4 used in this dish and remainder in another dish)
Handful soramame fava beans (28 beans/82 g with inner skin in photo)
1 tsp shiokoji salted rice malt
1/4 tsp tahini
1 tsp dashi (not in photo)
<Directions>
1.
Cut eggplant lengthwise in half, and diagonally slice into 7-8 mm thick pieces.
2.
Heat sesame oil, and saute eggplant on medium high heat.
Flip, cover, lower heat somewhat, and cook until done.
3.
Meanwhile, blanch fava beans for 3-4 minutes, and drain.
When cool enough, peel off skin, and place in a mixing bowl.
4.
Mash fava beans.
Add shiokoji and tahini, and mix well.
Add dashi, and make a moist chunky paste.
5.
Add eggplant, and mix well.
Ready to serve.
<Notes>
- If fava beans are soft and very moist, adding dashi is optional. If dashi is not available, add water.
- The texture of mashed fava beans can either be creamy or chunky.
- Whether or not to slice eggplant into rounds or oblong pieces or to dice is up to you.
- Tahini is added to create a rich note, but it is optional. Thick soy milk or mild cream cheese such as mascarpone would be a good option for the same effect.
- Eggplant is often deep-fried for a brighter skin color.
- Hibari-ae is a general term for dishes featuring another ingredient that is mixed with mashed fava beans. The main ingredients are typically vegetables in season or seafood (shrimp, calamari).
- Hibari literally means lark. The bird starts to sing when fava beans start to appear in the market and grocery stores in Japan.
