EGGPLANT AND PEPPERS IN BLACK BEAN GARLIC SAUCE



Eggplant and Peppers in Black Bean Garlic Sauce image

Delicious! :) Makes 4 servings as a main dish. It can easily serve 6-8 if you add fried or extra firm tofu, slices of chicken breast, or white fish, and it's delicious that way, too. I've also added sliced cabbage to the vegetables.

Chinese Eggplants (Aubergine) With Black Bean Sauce image

I love eggplants, but allergic to all seeds, peanuts and nuts. I cannot use commercially available hoisin sauce because it has sesame oil. I cannot make hoisin sauce because it has peanut butter, so I came up with this dish tonight to satisfy my craving for Chinese eggplants.
