Best Eggplant Aubergine Glazed With Hoisin Sauce Recipes

SPICY HOISIN GLAZED EGGPLANT

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the ginger, garlic and red chili flakes and cook until soft, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the heat and whisk in the hoisin, vinegar and soy sauce until combined and then strain, reserving the sauce.
• Heat grill to high.
• Brush eggplant slices on both sides with the oil and season with salt and pepper. Place the slices on the grill and grill until golden brown and slighty charred, 4 to 5 minutes. Brush with some of the glaze, turn over and continue grilling just until cooked through, brushing with more of the glaze, 3 to 4 minutes longer. Remove from the grill and brush with the remaining glaze. Transfer to a platter and sprinkle with the cilantro.

SPICY GLAZED EGGPLANT

Steps:

• Toss eggplant with 1 teaspoon salt and drain in a colander, stirring occasionally, 45 minutes.
• Rinse eggplant under cold water and dry well, pressing out any excess moisture.
• Stir together mirin, soy sauce, ginger, and seven-spice powder.
• Heat oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over medium-high heat until it shimmers, then sauté eggplant until browned, about 8 minutes. Stir in mirin mixture and cook, gently stirring and turning frequently, until sauce becomes a glaze and eggplant is browned and tender, about 1 minute.
• Serve hot or at room temperature, sprinkled with chives.

EGGPLANT WITH GARLIC SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat the canola oil in a skillet over high heat. Cook and stir the eggplant until soft, about 4 minutes. Stir in the water, red pepper flakes, and garlic powder. Cover and simmer until all the water is absorbed. Meanwhile, mix sugar, cornstarch, soy sauce, and oyster sauce in a bowl until sugar and cornstarch have dissolved. Stir sauce into the eggplant, making sure to evenly coat the eggplant. Cook until the sauce has thickened.
