Main Ingredients- 1 medium eggplant
- 1 ripe tomato
- 1/4 onion
Seasoning Ingredients- 1/2 Tbsp minced garlic
- 1 Tbsp chopped green onion
- 1 Tbsp soy sauce
- Pinch of black pepper
- 1 Tbsp honey or corn syrup
- 1/2 Tbsp minced garlic
- 1 Tbsp chopped green onion
- 1 Tbsp soy sauce
- Pinch of black pepper
- 1 Tbsp honey or corn syrup
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare your ingredients. Wash the eggplant and remove the stem. Slice it into 0.5cm thick half-moons. Remove the stem from the tomato and cut it into bite-sized pieces, about 2cm. Peel the onion and slice it into 0.5cm thick strips.
Step 2
Heat about 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil in a preheated pan over medium heat. Add the sliced eggplant and cook until both sides are golden brown and slightly softened. Eggplant absorbs oil, so don’t be afraid to use a little extra oil initially. Cook until the eggplant is tender and glistening.
Step 3
Once the eggplant is nicely browned, add the sliced onion and tomato to the pan. Stir-fry them together with the eggplant. When the onion begins to turn translucent, add all the seasoning ingredients (minced garlic, chopped green onion, soy sauce, honey, and pepper). Stir everything quickly to combine and sauté for another 1-2 minutes until the vegetables are well-coated with the sauce.
Step 4
Transfer the delicious eggplant and tomato stir-fry to a serving plate. For an extra touch of flavor and aroma, freshly grind some black pepper over the top. Serve immediately while warm for the best taste.
