Ben made this vegetarian Eggplant as a side dish.
Ingredients
- 1 long Eggplant
- 5 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 green onions, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 teaspoons fish sauce
- 2 teaspoons sesame oil
- chili flakes, optional
- toasted sesame seeds for garnishing
Instructions
 Remove stem from eggplant, cut into 2 inches chunks and cut each chunk lengthwise into half.
Bring water to a boil in a steamer and steam eggplant for 5 minutes, until softened. |
 Use a pair of scissors to cut the eggplant into 3 smaller pieces for each chunk. |
 Mix the sauce ingredients in a small bowl. |
 Ben spiced up the sauce with some Japanese red pepper powder. |
 Toss the sauce with the steamed eggplant and garnish with toasted sesame seeds. Serve with steamed rice. |
beautiful recipe but not really vegetarian as there is fish sauce!
