Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Soak the purchased eggplants in light salt water for about 10 minutes, and then clean them. You can also rub them with flour and wash them again to minimize pesticide residues.

   

2. 2 Add an appropriate amount of water to the pot, steam the washed eggplants in a drawer, and boil the water for about 7 to 10 minutes. Different pots are different, and the size of the eggplants is also different. Be careful not to oversteam, otherwise the taste will not be good.

   

3. 3 Take out the steamed eggplant and let cool.

   

4. 4 Tear the cooled eggplants into strips and steam them just right so they are soft and tender but not watery. Don't make them watery, otherwise they won't taste good.

   

5. 5 Peel, wash and mince the garlic or crush it with a garlic clipper. I like to mince it. It tastes better. Mincing is also good. It can be done as convenient as you like. Wash and dice the green pepper. It tastes especially fragrant with the addition of green pepper.

   

6. 6 Add a little balsamic vinegar to the chopped green pepper and garlic, 1 tablespoon of very fresh soy sauce, a little oyster sauce, and a little sugar. If you like spicy food, you can add half a spoonful of chili oil. If you can tolerate spicy food, you can add a little more. If you are heavy-mouthed, add a little salt and mix well. You can add seasonings according to your favorite taste, so you can start the meal. Mixing them together is also a good choice.
