Teriyaki Style Aubergine on Rice (Kabayaki)

It looks exactly like the original eel kabayaki, but it's really aubergine!

Recipe By: Tobuchan (https://cookbuzz.com/kitchen/25)
Serves 1 Prep: 5 min Cook: 15 min

Ingredients

Aubergine (medium) 1
Olive oil 1 tbsp
Soy sauce 3 tbsp
Sake 3 tbsp
Mirin 3 tbsp
Granulated sugar 2.5 tbsp
Water 3 tbsp

Method

1
Put the sake and mirin in a pan and boil until the alcohol has evaporated. Add the soy sauce, sugar and water and reduce the sauce on medium heat.
2
When the sauce is thick, it's ready. If it's too thick, add some water. You can add a pinch of dashi granules here if you like.
3
Peel the aubergine in strips and wrap in a double layer of cling film. Microwave for 3 minutes.
4
Remove the cling film and using two forks, make a long cut and pull it open. Score with a fork to make it flat.
5
Put the olive oil in a frying pan on medium heat. Add the aubergine, skin side down and fry for 3-4 minutes before turning over for another 3-4 minutes.
6
Pour in the sauce from Step 2 and mix well. Turn the aubergine over and fry with the sauce.
7
Fill a bowl with cooked rice and place the aubergine on top then pour over the sauce.

Tips & Note

It's important to evaporate the alcohol from the sake and mirin otherwise it won't taste so good.

Asparagus. The earth is wonderful because such a delicious food grows here. But even if you want to make something with asparagus, recipes are limited. Asparagus goes great with pasta. It is surprisingly delicious.

Aubergine (eggplant) and miso are a match made in heaven. Cooking thick sliced of aubergine is a bit of hassle, but with a microwave, it's done in 3 minutes. All that's left is to stir fly it with the miso sauce. Translated by Chat GPT
