Indians call Eggplant "Brinjal". Search Brinjal for Indian recipes. It is roasted on direct fire or steamed until soft. For roasting we use charcoal fire. A gnash lengthwise is made and eggplant is coated with some oil and placed on charcoal and turned every few minutes until entire thing is soft. Shrivels up a bit. Remove skin (charred if roasted) and soft flesh of brinjal is eaten bland or seasoned or curried.

Mmmmm, looks good!
Although I'd have put nacho flavored tortilla chips in it, and maybe instant oatmeal if I'd got it too soupy.
Ought to RE Video your "Spice" video to this or your "Chick pea surprise" video.

Technically, you can't exactly "debitter" it, but it will definitely make it much less bitter with soy sauce, add cooking wine if that doesn't work, or see authentic Chinese recipes for stir fry to see how they do it because I don't know the exact recipe. OR maybe because the eggplant you used had been aged for such a long time it altered the flavor. The next step I would try would be to get fresher eggplant. :)

How to make unbitter eggplant: brown some meat in a pan with oil, add cubed (purple is what I prefer) eggplant, add some salt, soy sauce, maybe cooking wine and such, then cook until eggplant's soft. It's Chinese, I eat it all the time (minus meat. I iz veg.) with rice.

How do you make it unbitter without the meat then? The salt method has its disadvantages.

Not fresh enough. Your british hay, where is the sense of humor, where is the passion for cooking. Terrible chef. You would lose the audience. 3/10

Well no, if you mean the ingredients they were not terribly fresh since they were all left over props from my vegetable videos.
