Steps
- Trim the ends off 4 eggplants and cut them in half lengthwise.
- Make diagonal slits on the skin side of the eggplant and cut into bite-sized pieces. [Key Tip!] Scoring the skin helps the flavors penetrate better and speeds up cooking.
- Place the cut eggplant in a bowl, fill with plenty of water, and cover with kitchen paper. Let it soak for over 10 minutes to remove bitterness and absorb water.
- Finely chop the roots off 2 myoga and mince them.
- Peel and mince 15g of ginger.
- Cut the root ends off 3 stalks of chives in half and slice them thinly.
- Mince 1/3 stalk of green onion. [Key Tip!] You can also customize with your favorite herbs if you don't have all of these – it will still be delicious.
- In a bowl, combine 1.5 tbsp sugar, 2 tsp miso, 1 tsp potato starch, 1 tbsp oyster sauce, and 2 tbsp soy sauce. Mix well until dissolved.
- Add 4 tbsp of cooking sake (rice wine) to the mixture from Step 8 and stir further. (This is your combined seasoning A)
- Thoroughly drain the eggplant that was soaking in water and pat dry with kitchen paper.
- Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil and 1 tsp sesame oil in a frying pan over medium heat.
- Once the pan is hot, arrange the eggplant with the skin side down.
- Flip the eggplant and cook until browned and tender all over (approx. 8 minutes).
- Once browned, remove the eggplant from the frying pan.
- In the remaining oil in the pan, quickly sauté the minced myoga, ginger, chives, and green onion over low heat until fragrant. [Key Tip!] Just sauté briefly to release their aroma; avoid overcooking.
- Once the herbs are fragrant, add the combined seasoning A made in Step 9 and bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring. [Key Tip!] Stir continuously to prevent lumps from the potato starch and ensure the alcohol evaporates completely.
- Return the cooked eggplant to the simmering sauce and stir-fry briefly to coat everything evenly.
- Transfer to a serving dish and sprinkle with a pinch of bonito flakes (katsuobushi), white sesame seeds (to taste), and a pinch of ichimi togarashi (Japanese chili powder), if desired. Enjoy!
