LEARN HOW TO MAKE A VEGAN SPICY CHINESE BRAISED EGGPLANT RECIPE
LAY HO MA!! This eggplant dish is incredibly packed with flavour and reminds me of my childhood. I used to eat this often at the dinner table with a bowl of white fluffy rice. Join me in this episode and learn how to make a vegan Chinese spicy braised eggplant recipe with ease! Let’s begin.
Ingredients:
1 large Italian eggplant (or ideally 2 skinny Chinese eggplants)
2 large pieces garlic
3 sticks green onion
2 tbsp cane sugar
1 tbsp rice vinegar
3 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp Korean pepper powder (gochugaru)
drizzle of olive oil
1/2 cup water
1 tbsp roasted peanuts
Directions:
1. Slice the eggplant(s) into wedges. Finely chop the garlic. Chop the green onion (keep some of the green part for garnish)
2. Prep the sauce by combining the cane sugar, rice vinegar, soy sauce, and Korean pepper powder
3. Heat up a sauté pan on medium high heat. Drizzle with olive oil
4. Add the eggplant when the pan just starts to smoke. Sear the eggplant as best you can just to get some colour
5. Add the garlic and sauté for 5min, then add the green onion
6. Add the sauce plus the water. Deglaze the pan, then cover and cook on medium for 5min
7. Crush the peanuts in a pestle and mortar
8. Plate the eggplant when cooked. Garnish with the green onion that was set aside and the crushed peanuts

I was wondering how to cook our eggplant differently, then I discovered this recipe of yours.. and Today I tried it.. Its delicious and I super love it. Thank you☺️☺️☺️
Great recipe! The taste is so delicious! Love it 😍
What can I replace the Korean pepper powder with? crushed red pepper? also because it's eggplant the oil gets absorbed really quickly..should I addmore esp for the garlic?

Nice. I made this tonight with eggplant wedges I'd frozen in the fall. Added chunks of yellow bell pepper too and reduced sugar a bit. Delicious over brown short grain rice.
You're too cool Wil!! Handsome cook.
That looks so delicious! Eggplant is my favourite vegetable!
I am in love with your youtube channel!!!!! Everything looks amazing and taste Yummy (^_^)
Mmmmmm I just love egg plants but I think we don’t get most of the Korean spices here in India . I’ve tried online . Yet this dish looks so amazing your presentation is so good 😊 I must try this mouth watering recipe thank you

I've made this 3 times now. Definitely one of my favorites as well! Love it, love it!! Thank you Wil for sharing this amazine recipe. 🙏🤗
Wow! Just had coconut curry chickpea with Thai rice.
For those who don't know. Whole foods has Gochugaru but its not in the spice section. Its near the dried seaweed. Brand is "Mother in Laws" with a black label.
