Ingredients:

  • 5 japanese eggplants , sliced thinly the short way (they're long and thin- if you only have the larger eggplant, 1 medium is plenty, diced)
  • 1 garlic clove
  • 1 slice fresh ginger
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce (or tamari)
  • 2 tsp mirin (you can use a bit more if you prefer your sauce a little sweeter)

Directions:

  1. Combine Soy sauce, mirin, crushed garlic and ginger in a bowl.
  2. Slice your eggplant thinly and into small pieces.
  3. Toss eggplant in hot pan (I use a spray oil like Pam) with the sauce mixture.
  4. Sauté at a medium heat until very tender, about 10 minutes.
  5. Add a little water to keep the veg moist if necessary.
  6. Great as a side dish for fish or chicken.
  7. Add diced medium firm tofu or any other protein for a very simple, quick meal.
