Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 tablespoon spicy bean paste ((douban la jiang))
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon soy sauce
2 teaspoons sugar
1 tablespoon shaoxing wine
1 teaspoon fish sauce
2-3 Japanese eggplants ((about 6 cups))
2 scallions ((cut into 2-inch lengths))
3 tablespoons oil
4 oz. ground pork ((110g; ground chicken or ground turkey can also be substituted))
2 thin slices ginger ((julienned))
10 dried red chilies
4 cloves garlic ((finely minced))
1 tablespoon Shaoxing wine

Steps:

  • Combine the sauce ingredients in a small bowl and set aside.
  • Wash the eggplants, cut the ends off and slice them into equal sized pieces. After slicing, separate the green and white portions of the scallions into roughly two piles.
  • Over very high heat, heat a tablespoon of oil in your wok. Add half of the eggplant and let it sear until brown on all sides. You can lower the heat if it looks like they're starting to burn. You want to cook the eggplant for about 5 minutes until they start to get soft and have a nice sear. Take this first batch of eggplant out of the pan, heat a second tablespoon of oil, and do the same with your second batch. Set all the cooked eggplant aside on a plate.
  • Set the heat to medium high and add the last tablespoon of oil to the wok, along with the ground pork. After the pork has browned, add the ginger and cook for a minute to let it crystalize with the pork. Stir in the whole red chili peppers and the minced garlic, and after a minute, turn the heat back up to high. Add the eggplant back in, along with the stir-fry sauce, the white parts of the scallions, and the shaoxing wine. Stir-fry everything together for another 2 minutes, making sure everything is well-combined.
  • Toss in the rest of the scallions and stir-fry for another 20 seconds. Plate and serve immediately with white rice.

EGGPLANT (AUBERGINE) WITH RAW GARLIC



Eggplant (Aubergine) With Raw Garlic image

This is very similar to a dish I enjoy at a fabulous Toronto restaurant, Jerusalem -- but the restaurant's version doesn't use raw garlic. I love the taste of this dish. If you're the only eggplant lover in your household (like I am), use a smaller eggplant, cut the sauce ingredients in half, and enjoy this yourself.

EGGPLANT (AUBERGINE) IN HOT SAUCE



Eggplant (Aubergine) in Hot Sauce image

Note I garnished with some 'fried egg' using egg beaters with a chinese style seasoning. I will add the exact directions for this next time. Adopted 8/17/06

Provided by drhousespcatcher

Categories     Chinese

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 -5 Japanese eggplants, sliced 1/2 inch thick and 2 inches long
1/2 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
1 tablespoon minced fresh garlic
1 1/2 tablespoons szechuan hot bean sauce
1/2 tablespoon szechuan style pepper
2 tablespoons Braggs liquid aminos or 2 tablespoons soy sauce
1/4 cup vegetable broth or 1/4 cup chicken broth
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
1/2 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
2 tablespoons minced green onions
3 drops sesame oil
1 tablespoon chopped parsley

Steps:

  • NOTE if using American Eggplant, use baby eggplant and it should be peeled. Slice the same way.
  • Heat saute pan over high heat with some broth then add ginger, garlic and eggplant slices; stir fry until eggplant becomes thoroughly soft. [note to save time you can nuke the eggplant slices until almost done]. Note if you decide to nuke it or bake it a bit first sprinkle with the szechaun pepper in this step instead of adding it to the next step.
  • Add bean sauce, szechaun pepper, Braggs or soy sauce, vegetable broth and sesame oil stirring for 1 minutes over high heat.
  • Add black pepper, vinegar and green onion; stir until hot and blended.
  • Serve garnished with parsley. You may serve over rice.
  • Note: The vegetable broth was a medium one. Not too light nor overly rich. However the recipe seems that it would allow you to try either one in place of the medium broth. I will give it a shot when I have some made up for that.

HERB AND GARLIC GRILLED EGGPLANT (AUBERGINE)



Herb and Garlic Grilled Eggplant (Aubergine) image

Eaten either hot or at room temperature, this is one of those simple, but ultimately satisfying dishes that goes with almost anything and is so good eaten on its own. Adapted from The Splendid Table, by Lynne Rossetto Kasper. This doubles easily.

Provided by Sharon123

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 25m

Yield 6-8

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 medium eggplants, sliced into 1/4-inch thick round slices (about 2 pounds)
2/3 cup extra virgin olive oil (approximately)
4 large garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup fresh basil, minced (tightly packed)
1/2 cup Italian parsley, minced (tightly packed)
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
salt

Steps:

  • Marinating the Eggplant:.
  • Lightly brush both sides of each eggplant slice with oil. Blend together the garlic, parsley, basil and pepper. Spread a little of the herb blend over each slice. Lay the slice side by side on a large platter, stacking them if necessary. Lightly cover with plastic wrap and let stand at room temperature 2 to 4 hours.
  • Cooking Eggplant on an Outdoor Grill:
  • Burn down a charcoal fire (using real wood charcoal briquets if possible), until a white ash has formed on the briquets. Heat should be moderate. Sprinkle the slices with salt. Grill the undrained eggplant slices about 10 minutes, turning once, or until deep golden brown on each side and soft when pierced with a knife. Spoon any seasonings left on the platter over each slice after turning. Transfer the finished slices to a platter and serve.
  • Cooking Eggplant Inside:.
  • Grill undrained slices over medium heat on a gridded skillet or stove-top grill, until deep, golden brown on each side.
  • Spread any seasonings left on the platter over each slice before turning. Do this in several batches unless your cooking surface is large enough to hold all the slices in a single layer. Or you may preheat broiler, placing eggplant about 4" from the flame. Spread any leftover marinade over the slices, and have them in a single layer. Broil slowly until slices are deep golden brown on each side, and eggplant is soft when pierced.
  • Serve as a first course or main dish after topping the warm slices with long furls of Parmigiano-Reggiano or sheep cheese carved with a vegetable peeler. Enjoy!
