Ingredients

4-5 Chinese or Japanese eggplants

2 tbl garlic

1 tbl ginger

1 c vegetable or low-sodium chicken broth (water will do in a pinch)

3 tbl rice vinegar (adjust to taste)

1 tbl sugar

1 tbl soy sauce

2 tbl oil

cayenne pepper to taste

2 tbl cornstarch

1/4 c water

1 tsp sesame oil

2 bunches scallions

Directions

Cut eggplants into 1 1/2 inch slices, then cut the slices into quarters. Cut scallions into 1 1/2 inch pieces. Put sauce ingredients together (broth, vinegar, sugar, and soy sauce) and set aside. Heat oil, saute ginger and garlic. Stir-fry eggplant for a couple of minutes. (It will soak up the oil fast!) Add sauce, cook until eggplant is tender. Mix cornstarch and water, add to eggplant. Stir a moment, then add scallions. When sauce thickens, add cayenne and sesame oil.
