The tender, simmered eggplant is delicious. Kids love it, and even if you make a big plateful, it disappears in no time. (^^)v

During my student days in Shinshu, I worked part-time. The dish called 'Abura Nasu' that the kitchen lady made for us was the starting point... but it hardly resembles the original anymore. (^^ゞ

Ingredients

Serves 4 servings
  1. 7 ozthinly sliced pork belly
  2. 1 packageeggplant
  3. 1 packagebell peppers
  4. 1 clovegarlic
  5. 1 cloveginger
  6. 4 inchesgreen onion
  7. 2 tablespoonsvegetable oil
  8. 2 tablespoons★miso
  9. 1 tablespoon★sugar
  10. 1 tablespoon★soy sauce
  11. 1 tablespoon★mirin
  12. 1 tablespoon★sake (or Shaoxing wine!)

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Cut the eggplant into large chunks and soak in water. Cut the bell peppers into chunks. Cut the pork belly into 1 1/2-inch pieces, slice the garlic and ginger thinly, and roughly chop the green onion.

  2. 2

    In a frying pan, add vegetable oil, garlic, ginger, and green onion, and heat. When the oil starts to sizzle, add the pork belly and stir-fry.

  3. 3

    Once the pork belly is separated, add the eggplant and stir-fry. When the eggplant is coated with oil, add the ★ seasonings and 1/2 cup (100 ml) of water, cover, and bring to a boil over high heat.

  4. 4

    When the liquid starts to reduce, add the bell peppers and continue to stir-fry until the liquid is completely reduced and the oil sizzles. Sprinkle with ground Sichuan pepper if desired.

  5. 5

    Note added 11/06/01:

    For a spicy kick, add 1 teaspoon of doubanjiang in step 2 if desired.

  6. 6

    Note added 13/03/01:

    It's also delicious with potatoes. Slice them 1/8 to 1/5 inch thick and add at the same time as the eggplant!

  7. 7

    Note added 14/04/12:

    Using Shaoxing wine gives it a distinctly Chinese flavor!
