Equipment

  • pan

Ingredients

  • 1 medium Korean/Asian eggplant or 2 small, about 8 ounces
  • 1/2 medium onion
  • 2 small red chili peppers
  • 2 garlic cloves thinly sliced
  • 1 small thumb size ginger cut into short matchsticks
  • cooking oil
  • Seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • Pinch salt and pepper
  • 1/2 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon sesame seeds

Instructions

  • Cut the eggplants lengthwise in halves. Then cut diagonally into about 1/4-inch thick slices. Thinly slice the onion.
  • Heat a pan with 1 tablespoon of cooking oil over medium high heat. Add the onion, garlic, and ginger, and stir-fry until fragrant. Add the eggplants and stir-fry, for a minute or two until they start to soften.
  • Stir in the sauce mix, and then add the peppers.
