Whenever I cook anything, I cannot help but make things Chinese style. Recently I tried moussaka, which is similar to lasagna that uses Eggplant instead of pasta. I tried to recreate moussaka at home. As per usual, I ended up creating something else. I created this baked Chinese eggplant with pork mince, in Szechuan style (because I like things spicy!).

You can skip the chili and use bell peppers to make this a not spicy version . I do not want you to miss out on this delicious recipe just because it can be spicy.

A few things that help

The eggplant I used is medium to large size. Baking time will vary depends on the size of the eggplant. I suggest you check after 10 minutes of baking. If you can push a fork easily into the baked eggplant, that means it is ready for the next stage. If it is very difficult and it felt very raw still, bake it for a bit longer.

You can cut the eggplant open before you bake. However, I would not recommend it as it tends to get a little bit try.

If you cannot deal with spicy things, you can replace the chili with red bell pepper. That combination will still taste amazing, just minus the spicy.
