Step by Step Method

Step 1

Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the jalapenos, garlic, ginger. Add the white parts of the onion. Stir until fragrant, about 2 minutes.

Step 3

Add the eggplant and cook for 5 minutes, tossing frequently, until the eggplant has softened. Depending on the eggplant, you may have to add a little bit more oil so that the veggies don't char.

Step 4

While the eggplant cooks, in a small bowl combine the rice wine vinegar, soy sauce, cornstarch, and sugar.

Step 5

When the eggplant has softened, add the sauce mixture. Stir to coat. Reduce heat to medium low. Add a bit of water, a little at a time, if it gets too thick. I normally add about 1/4 cup. Cook until sauce is thickened and the eggplant is very soft but not falling apart.

Step 6

Remove from heat and serve immediately. Garnish with the green part of the onions.
