Not all the Filipinos know how to cook Tortang Talong, I am kind of upset or something because Tortang Talong is very easy to cook yet many of us don’t know how to cook it. It’s not your kind of Fancy restaurant dish because we all know eggplant is cheap in the market as well as the egg. I made a little twist in this recipe to make it more appealing, delicious and special and of course to me my dishes are special because I cook dishes with all my heart, lol! You, guys can do some twist too. Just be creative and do not be afraid to experiment. Here is how to cook SPECIAL TORTANG TALONG:
