Instructions
  1. In a wok or saucepan over high heat, add 1 tablespoon of the cooking oil and swirl to coat wok. When wok is hot, add eggplant in a single layer.
  2. Cook 2 minutes and flip each piece over so they cook evenly. Cook another 2-3 minutes, flipping occasionally. The eggplant should have changed in color, the skin wrinkled and the flesh soft.
  3. Push eggplant aside in wok and add 1 tablespoon cooking oil. Add garlic, peppers, ginger and green onion. Stir these aromatics until they become fragrant.
  4. Combine aromatics with eggplant and stir-fry for one minute.
  5. Add soy sauce, balsamic vinegar and sugar and stir to combine all. Serve immediately and ENJOY!
