Ok, here is what I had this morning. I just used whatever I found in the fridge and pantry. I'm not that creative enough to name my recipe but it does taste good.
Eggplant
Bean Sprout - bought a bag few days ago and I'm trying to get rid of them, but I still have some left.
Spinach
Eggs
Green Onions
Olive Oil Linguica Hickory smoked Portuguese style sausage - I decided to add this in the last minute. It has been in the fridge for quite sometime, so I thought it's time to get rid of it too.
Vietnam rice paper - I used it just for fun. Had this in the pantry for months.
- Lightly fry the eggplant in olive oil for a minute then add the the sausage, bean sprout, and spinach then cook it for few minutes. Sprinkle with salt to taste.
- In a bowl, beat the eggs and add the chopped green onions. Fry in a separate pan.
- Place the fried eggs and the rest of the food on the wrapper and roll.
I made it too big that it was hard to roll. I guess I need more practice.
