Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Today, I’ll share a super simple recipe for stir-fried eggplant with a soy sauce glaze that can be made in under 5 minutes. The key is to stir-fry it just enough for the eggplant to soften, preserving its original taste. Let’s make a delicious eggplant dish to revitalize your appetite!
Step 2
First, wash the eggplants and trim off the ends. Cut them in half lengthwise, then slice them diagonally into about 0.7cm thick pieces. Slice the bell pepper into thick strips. Shred the carrots to a similar thickness for added color.
Step 3
Heat a little cooking oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and stir-fry until fragrant to create scallion oil. Once the scallion oil is aromatic, add the sliced eggplants and stir-fry over high heat until they become slightly translucent. When the eggplants are about half cooked, add the prepared carrots and bell pepper and stir-fry together, ensuring the vegetables retain a crisp texture.
Step 4
Once the eggplant and vegetables are partially cooked, add the soy sauce, red pepper flakes, and sugar. Stir well to combine and adjust the seasoning. Stir-frying over high heat quickly prevents the sauce from burning and ensures it coats the eggplant evenly.
Step 5
For an extra kick, you can add one thinly sliced chili pepper to make it spicier and more flavorful. This stir-fried eggplant with soy sauce glaze is a delicious side dish that both adults and children will love!
Step 6
And there you have it! A wonderfully completed stir-fried eggplant with soy sauce glaze, the perfect side dish for a meal. Enjoy it with a warm bowl of rice!
