Mudah

Terung Kicap is a beloved Malaysian vegetarian dish that showcases the rich multicultural heritage of Malaysia. 'Terung' refers to eggplant, a staple vegetable among Malay, Chinese, and Indian communities, while 'kicap' means soy sauce, a pantry essential in Malaysian kitchens. This dish is cherished for its simplicity, affordability, and deep umami flavors that come from a perfect blend of kicap manis (sweet soy sauce), fresh aromatics, and minimal oil, making it a healthy lunch option. Malaysian Terung Kicap is typically served as part of a wholesome lunch, alongside steamed rice and other vegetable dishes, or as a tasty side during family gatherings. The dish features tender fried terung that soaks up the savory-sweet kicap sauce, enhanced by the subtle warmth of cili, the fragrance of bawang putih (garlic), and a touch of local herbs like daun bawang (spring onion). This recipe uses less oil and prioritizes fresh, local ingredients, making it perfect for those seeking a healthy, nutritious, and authentic Malaysian meal.

Bahan-bahan(untuk 1 medium plate per person with rice)

2 medium (about 400g) Eggplant (terung ungu)
3 tablespoons Kicap manis (sweet soy sauce)
1 tablespoon Kicap masin (light soy sauce)
3 cloves Bawang merah (shallots, sliced)
2 cloves Bawang putih (garlic, minced)
1 large Cili merah (red chili, sliced thin) - pilihan
2 stalks Daun bawang (spring onion, chopped) - pilihan
1 tablespoon Minyak masak (cooking oil, preferably canola or sunflower)
3 tablespoons Air (water)
to taste Garam (salt) - pilihan
1/4 teaspoon Lada sulah (white pepper) - pilihan

Arahan

1
Wash and slice the eggplants into 1cm thick rounds. Soak slices in lightly salted water for 10 minutes to reduce bitterness and prevent browning.
10 minutes
Soaking helps keep the eggplant tender and reduces oil absorption.
2
Drain and pat dry the eggplant slices with a clean towel.
2 minutes
Dry eggplants brown better and absorb less oil.
3
Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Arrange eggplant slices in a single layer and pan-fry until golden brown on both sides (about 2-3 minutes per side). Work in batches if needed.
8 minutes
Use minimal oil and avoid overcrowding the pan for even browning.
4
Remove eggplant and set aside. In the same pan, add sliced shallots and garlic. Sauté until fragrant and lightly golden.
3 minutes
Use the leftover oil in the pan for extra flavor.
