Basil Pork With Eggplant And Tofu

If you like eating at Chinese restaurants, chances are you've come across the menu item, eggplant tofu. It is among my favorites when I opt for non-meat Chinese food. It's great with steamed rice and they come in various levels of spiciness, depending on the restaurant. I had the craving for eggplant tofu but was also in the mood for some meat protein. So I cooked up this recipe which is basically eggplant tofu with ground pork. Oh, and did I already tell you the big secret to the flavor and aroma of this dish is fresh basil leaves?
