If you happen to visit Shizuoka City, you will find many restaurants and izakayas serving and mainly using produce/products and ingredients from Shizuoka Prefecture. There are many treasures to be discovered in this hoard!
one of them is the French restaurant going by the name of Sugimoto Tetsuya!

If you can read Japanese you will know what is waiting for you inside!
A gastronomic paradise in Shizuoka Prefecture!
Mr. Sugimoto does everything by himself: chef, waiter and entertainer! This is real slow food in its true and best meaning!
Almost all ingredients are from Shizuoka Prefecture, be they vegetables, fruit, meat or fish!
But his specialty is organic vegetables from Shizuoka Prefecture!
I requested that this menu feature only produce for Shizuoka Prefecture only.
Since it has turned into a fairly long meal to explain I go about it dish by dish. This time we shall talk about the main dish!

I chose pork.
This pork goes by the name of LBY TON and comes from a pig raised by Mr. Matsuzawa in Fujinomiya City. It is of supreme quality and taste with little fat inside the meat itself (although the fat around it is also a morsel!) with a great bite reminiscent of top-class ham.

The pork (from the shoulder) was first rissole/fried on all sides before being cooked inside the oven.

All vegetables are organic and grown by Mr. matsuki of Bio Farm Matsuki in Fujinomiya (formerly Shibakawa Cho): burdock/gobo, carrot/ninjin, cucumber/kyuri, Morrocan Stringbeans/Morokko Ingen, “Tsurumurasaki”, Inca mezame potato and Red Moon Potato.
All vegetables were first fried in olive oil with a minimal seasoning and then lightly baked inside the oven.

The whole was served with Mr. Sugimoto’s own mustard dressing!

Deep-fried Pork-stuffed Aubergines/Egg-plants

Her is another recipe for my friend, Hapabento.
It is very Japanese in concept and is called 茄子の挟み揚げ/nasu no Hasami Age, Deep-fried Pork-stuufed Aubergines/Egg-plants!

INGREDIENTS: For 5 people

-Aubergines/Egg-plants: 5 (choose long ones)
-Minced pork: 180 g (Hallal foodies can replace it with minced chicken or mutton)
-Leeks: 3 tablespoons (chopped)
-Carrots: 3 tablespoons (chopped)
-Ginger: 1 teaspoon (freshly grated)
-Cornstrach: 1 tablespoon
-Beaten egg: 1 tablespoon
-Salt: 1/2 teaspoon
-Pepper: to taste
-Deep-frying/batter:
-Egg: 1/2
-Cornstarch: 4 tablespoons
For decoration/accompaniment:
-Beansprouts: as appropriate
-Mini-tomatoes: as appropriate

RECIPE:

-In a bowl, drop the minced pork, chopped vegetables, cornstarch, beaten egg, salt and pepper and mix well by hand. Divide into 10 portions.

-Cut off both extremities of the aubergines/egg-plants and peel 4 strips out of the skin to obtain a “zebra design”. Then cut them halfway in twice lengthwise for stuffing.

-Sprinkle more cornstach inside the cuttings and fill each space ( 2 for each aubergines) with one portion of pork stuffing.

-Mix the batter (egg and cornstarch) and brush the pork stuffing outside edges with it before deep-frying.

-Deep-fry at 170 degrees Celsius until you are satisfied with the cooking.

-Meanwhile, lightly boil beansprouts in salted water then plunge them in icy water, and drain.

-When the aubergines have been cooked, you can serve them whole or cut into pieces of your preferred size.

-Decorate dish with beansprouts and mini-tomatoes as shown in picture.

-You can season them with chili pepper, rice vinegar or soy sauce (or all together)
