Stir-Fried Eggplants is a favorite food at home. So easy-peasy procedures and once you prepared the ingredients beforehand, you will be done in "Nu." This is actually a recipe I learned from my Dad.
On Sundays he used to cook for us when he had his free weekend. As a kid, I watched him when he cooked, how he prepared the ingredients. Sometimes, I helped him and sliced the eggplants. It was his legacy to me... because every time I cook this, I always remember those days with him in the kitchen. Of course, I was the only one helping him, what have I expected I have 5 siblings, al brothers, lol! You may double the ingredients if you cook this for more persons.

Preaparation
Make as much of your old rice from the day before... I would usually cook more rice if I knew that I would be cooking the Eggplants. In a hot pan with 2 tablespoons cooking oil, fry the garlic until brown in color . Add the rice and stir until the rice gets hot, add a handful of the parsley leaves and stir fry until the parsley are well mixed in the rice. Add the cumin, salt and pepper. Transfer to a serving bowl and garnish or top the rice with the cooked eggplants.
