Stir Fry Pork Mince with Brinjal

Did I mention that my husband do not like eggplant or brinjal? Yes, my mother in law was surprised too as it seems that we share a common fondness for this vegetable (in addition to my hubby!) and she tried on many occasions to teach him to appreciate it when he was growing up.

I sneaked this into one of our meals one day and he said he didn't mind it as much as what he thought. Well, I grew to appreciate coconut so the least he could do is to enjoy brinjal right? Isn't it what we call compromise?

It's a simple classic dish I suppose. Nothing too fancy, but it's a quick and budget friendly meal. He had it with his rice. I had some with a side of vegetables.
