"Use the long, slender Asian eggplant for this easy-to-make Korean banchan dish. It could also work as a full on side dish. The weight of the eggplants is just a guess, as I couldn't find a reference for an "average Asian eggplant". LOL. Recipe from Koreatown, a cookbook."

Step by Step Method

Step 1

Cut the eggplants into 1/2 inch x 2 inch "batons" about the size of a finger. Add salt and sugar and let sit for 20 minutes while they release excess liquid. Drain.

Step 2

Place the eggplant in a microwave safe container and microwave for 2 1/2 minutes. Toss and cook again for another 2 1/2 minutes. While the eggplant cooks, combine the rest of the ingredients in a bowl. Add the cooked eggplant and toss until coated. Serve immediately.
