by The Rakhine people of Western Myanmar love very hot spicy food and make this dip hotter than I can handle it. Therefore, although I say the chili’s are optional, it is no longer an Arakanese dip if the chilis are not added!
serves 4
- 5-6 Japanese eggplants
- ½ small white onion, sliced very thin and rinsed under cold water
- 1/4 c cold pressed peanut oil
- 2-3 hot green or red fresh chilis (optional)
Method: Roast the eggplants in a very hot oven until very soft. If you have a BBQ grill the eggplants over the flame until the skin is blackened and they are soft. This tastes much better if done over a grill.
