Korean stir-fried brinjals

By Abigail Donnelly
4
Easy
20 minutes
15 minutes

Ingredients

  • 2 T canola oil
  • 2 large brinjals
  • 4 T soya sauce
  • 2 T fish sauce
  • 1 T brown sugar
  • 2 white wine vinegar
  • 1 x 2 cm piece of ginger
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 chilli (or more if you like it hot)

Method

Heat the oil in a large pan over high heat.

Cut the brinjals into small cubes. Fry the brinjals in batches, then drain on kitchen paper.

Return the brinjals to the pan and add the soya sauce, fish sauce, sugar and vinegar.

Grate the ginger, garlic and chop the chilli finely.

Scatter with the chopped spring onions.

Serve tossed into noodles or as a side dish for an Asian-grilled chicken breast.
