1 Tbspsugar

4 Tbsplight soy sauce

2 Tbspwater

Instructions

Step 1

Begin by slicing your aubergine into 1cm discs.

Step 2

Coat your aubergine discs in cornflour and set them aside.

Step 3

Place a non-stick frying pan on medium heat and add in a good glug of vegetable oil.

Step 4

Fry your coated aubergine in your pan for 5 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Remove and set aside.

Step 5

Rinse out your frying pan and then place it back on the heat and drizzle with a bit of vegetable oil.

Step 6

Add in your garlic, ginger, spring onions, sugar, and soy sauce (and water if you want to dilute the sauce). Leave to simmer for 5 minutes or until the sauce thickens.

Step 7

Once the sauce has thickened, add back in your fried aubergines and simmer for a further 5 minutes, flipping them halfway through so that each side soaks up the sauce.

Step 8

Remove the aubergines and serve up with some rice or noodles. Drizzle the remaining sauce in the pan over the aubergines for extra juiciness. Enjoy!
