Ingredients

  • 2 parts miso
  • 3 parts rice wine vinegar
  • 1 part soy sauce
  • 1 part toasted sesame oil
  • Freshly grated ginger, minced garlic and red chile flakes to taste

For eggplant: Heat 2 teaspoons oil in a skillet over medium
high heat. Add eggplant and stir to coat with oil. Cook for
about 2 minutes then pour sauce over vegetables, reduce heat to
medium low, cover pan and cook until tender. Add water as
