<p><em>Update 2020-04-13: A friend pointed out my comments about working at home is wrong.

<p>I have been working from home for about a month now. <del>It is actually not very common here in Sweden
where universities are still open.</del>(👮 <strong>fake news!</strong>) Unfortunately, despite my effort, I still coughed 3 times today
🤔️. Not sure if it is just the spring or I have got Covid already.</p>

<p>How can we fight pandemic? By staying home. What should we do at home? Cooking, of course! It moves
your body, drags you away from the computer for 30 minutes, and you have to eat something anyway, right?</p>
<p>So today I tried to cook a Chinese dish called 鱼香茄子, or Fish Flavoured Aubergine. If you are
vegetarian, don't worry. It doesn't contain fish 🐟️ and it doesn't taste like fish. Probably
it was invented by people who cannot afford fish to deceive themselves.</p>
<p>You need an Aubergine, some garlic, ginger, and green onion. I don't have any ginger or green
onion, so I used onion instead. In a pandemic, we shouldn't fuss over ingredients. (We probably
shouldn't not fuss about ingredients at any time. But I found this opinion is not very popular 🤐️.)</p>
<p><img alt="Ingredients" src="https://newptcai.github.io/images/2020-04-12-eggplant/01.jpg"></p>
<p>It's better if you have some <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doubanjiang">Black Bean Sauce</a>. (The
sauce normally comes with a lot chili flakes 🌶️. But I have been soften by life in Sweden so I got a
non-spicy one.) But any Chinese sauce should do. No one is going to accuse you cultural
misappropriation since you are home alone 😀️!</p>
<p><img alt="Sauce 1" src="https://newptcai.github.io/images/2020-04-12-eggplant/02.jpg"></p>
<p>Mix another source with two table spoon of vinegar, one spoon of soya sauce, a little bit sugar, and
one spoon of corn starch. Add 4 spoons of water. This is is supposed to taste like fish. Doesn't it
sound so?</p>
<p><img alt="Sauce 2" src="https://newptcai.github.io/images/2020-04-12-eggplant/06.jpg"></p>
<p>Add a lot oil in a frying pan. Really really a lot. Triple the oil shown in the picture. No,
quadruple. Or five times more 😱️. Aubergines are the SUV s for vegetables. They eat as much oil 🛢️
as you can afford.</p>
<p><img alt="A lot of oil" src="https://newptcai.github.io/images/2020-04-12-eggplant/03.jpg"></p>
<p>Fry the aubergine chops until they are well done. Take them out and save the left-over oil for
dinner. (You don't want to go to grocery too often now.)</p>
<p><img alt="Fri the aubergine" src="https://newptcai.github.io/images/2020-04-12-eggplant/04.jpg"></p>
<p>But leave a little bit oil in the pan to fry the garlic and the (green) onion with the black bean
sauce. Cook the onion to well-done. (Kill all the virus 🐛️ or anything alive on them!)</p>
<p><img alt="Fri the oninon" src="https://newptcai.github.io/images/2020-04-12-eggplant/05.jpg"></p>
<p>Mix the aubergine back and add the "fish" flavoured sauce. But don't eat it immediately. Add what
ever herbs you have to make it look greener. Wait until the lighting is better and take a photo.
(That's the trick of making it <strong>look</strong> more delicious 😍️.) Send the photo to all your friends and
acquaintances to quench your loneliness. Then you can eat!</p>

<p>Final thought -- I recently realized, if I would become an astronaut and fly to the Mars, my life on
the space ship 🚀️ probably would be quite similar to what I have now. So I do not have to go to Mars
any more! </p>
<p>I can be a Martian 👽️ at home if I choose to! But what would a Martian cook 🤔️?</p>
