DIRECTIONS


Place the eggplant cubes into a large bowl, and sprinkle with salt. Fill with enough water to cover, and let stand for 30 minutes. Rinse well, and drain on paper towels.


In a small bowl, stir together the soy sauce, red wine vinegar, sugar, chile pepper, cornstarch and chili oil. Set the sauce aside.


Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Fry the eggplant until it is tender and begins to brown, 5 to 10 minutes. Pour in the sauce, and cook and stir until the sauce is thick and the eggplant is evenly coated. Serve immediately.

Reviewed on Aug. 2, 2006 by THREDDIES this recipe is REDICULOUSLY easy and SO good!! changes i made were minor: doubled the sauce, used arrowroot instead of cornstarch, added fresh string beans and a green pepper (cooked for a few minutes with the eggplant, after it was browned, before sauce was added). i garnished with sesame seeds and served it with steamed brown rice. i can't even believe how good it is - it's going into the rotation, for sure!! i'd imagine this simple sauce would be great with chicken or tofu as well. total keeper - love it!

i don't know but if you have never had eggplant parmasean i HIGHLY recommend it
I made this up at home myself. If you have a George Forman electric indoor grill, dip eggplant slices in Italian dressing and grill on it until browned on both sides. Also, make lasagne, but instead of noodles, use eggplant dipped in egg and rolled in bread crumbs deep fried. YUM!
