Steamed Eggplant With Sesame Soy Sauce

Steamed Eggplant With  Sesame Soy Sauce


1. Trim off the stem end of the eggplants. Cut them crosswise into pieces about 2 inches in length.

2. Place the eggplant slices onto a steamer rack and steam over medium-high heat for 6-10 minutes, or until they are cooked to your liking.

3. While the eggplants are steaming, make the sauce by combining soy sauce, sesame oil, vinegar, ground dried chillies, garlic, ginger and sugar.

4. Stir well to blend flavors.

5. Remove the eggplants from the steamer and slice each piece in half lengthwise and each half again into 2-3 long strips. Arrange the pieces in a single layer on a serving plate. Spoon the sesame-soy sauce evenly over the eggplant pieces, sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds. You can also garnish with green coriander/cilantro.
