    Remove the stems from 2-3 eggplants, cut them in half lengthwise, make shallow diagonal cuts across the skin, then cut into bite-sized pieces.

  2. 2

    Heat oil in a frying pan and cook the eggplants skin-side down until golden. Flip and cook the other side until golden brown.

  3. 3

    Once both sides are golden, add the ★ seasonings, cover with a lid, and simmer over medium heat for about 10 minutes.

Tips

Make the diagonal cuts shallow – if you cut too deeply, the eggplant may fall apart during simmering.
