Braised eggplant

Braised eggplant

Eggplant wedges fry until golden, then soak up a savory-sweet braising sauce with garlic and scallion, becoming velvet-soft inside their shiny coats. Rich enough to feel indulgent, this takeout favorite comes together easily at home.

    Add an appropriate amount of cooking oil to the pan and heat it, then add the eggplant strips and stir-fry.

    Cook until wilted and soft, add light soy sauce, salt, minced garlic, and okra slices, stir-fry evenly, then remove from the pan.
