Caramelized Eggplant and Tofu with Jasmine Rice


Summer is TV's rerun season, so we decided to try the eggplant dish again tonight as well ;) It turned out even better tonight -- It's adapted from the "Little Saigon" cookbook by Ann Le -- the book has many Buddhist-style tofu recipes, but they all contain oyster or fish sauce -- so we just swap out with tamari and a little extra heat...

As I mentioned last week, because of family scheduling (and we're also on a bit of vacation this week) -- Raw Food Wednesday had to be postponed this week, but will return next week at it's regularly scheduled time...
