Really tasty eggplant dish, I love eggplants and bought some Chinese ones recently. Took to making this a chicken and Eggplant dish by first browning the chicken, then the eggplants putting each aside. Then the aromatics went in followed by the chicken and eggplants and finally double the sauce quantity in the recipe (which could have been 1.5 the sauce quantity). Super delicious. Thanks

I had a chinese eggplant to use up and this was perfect-I made a little extra sauce since I added 1/2 pound of ground pork i needed to finish, but mushrooms and/or tofu would be delicious as well! Great with rice

Loved the EASY and clear directions, and minimal ingredients. Now, I know how to prep the eggplants before cooking. Did the soak, and it worked great. Cornstarch coat was great tip, too. Dish was so satisfying. Made a 3x batch, to have enough leftovers:) Will definitely make again.

I made this for dinner tonight (exactly as written, using the first method of soaking the eggplant in salted water) and it was DELICIOUS!!! I served it with steamed brown rice that I mixed with some crisped tempeh bacon (Lightlife brand), and it made a great vegan meal. This one’s a keeper! Thank you so much for sharing the recipe!

Outstanding. I use the first method of soaking the eggplant in a salted bowl. The whole recipe is spot on. No modifications. I sauté tofu and made some rice. Delicious meal.

I search out amazing recipes and cook daily and this is one of the best! it’s easy to make and is delicious. My family says that it tastes bettter than the best chinese restaurants. You can easily add another protein and double the sauce portion to accomodate the extra ingredients. I have made it with tofu, and shrimp- just treat it the same as the eggplant: sprinkle with cornstarch, fry individually and at the end, combine the fried effplant, protein and then stir in the sauce. You will not be disappointed!!

In reply to Margaret T.. Yes, you can slice the eggplant into rounds.
