  1. Peel the eggplant in stripes and slice diagonally about 1cm thick.

  3. Slice the pork belly.
  4. Lightly beat the 3 eggs.

  6. Once the oil coats the eggplant, cover and steam-fry until softened.
  7. Remove the steamed eggplant from the pan.
  8. Stir-fry the pork belly in the same pan over medium heat.
  9. When the pork releases its fat, add a drizzle of White Sesame Oil, then add and stir-fry the green onion.
  10. Make a space in the center of the pan, add 1/2 tsp of Doubanjiang, and stir-fry until fragrant.
  11. Once the aroma is released, mix everything together and add the 5 Dried Chili Peppers and 10 Sichuan Peppercorns.
