Sichuan-flavored eggplant

Sichuan-flavored eggplant

Overview

When I was a child, I was a picky eater and the thing I was most afraid of eating was eggplant. The weird smell was my first impression of it. Today I am going to make this Sichuan-Hunan eggplant dish. It is named because of the Douban from Sichuan and the chopped pepper from Hunan. This subverts the image of eggplant in my mind.
