Cooking Instructions

Prepare the Eggplant

Wash the Japanese eggplants and cut them into bite-sized pieces, leaving the skin on for texture.

Sauté the Eggplant

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the eggplant pieces and sauté for about 5-7 minutes until they are tender and slightly browned.

Add Flavorings

Add minced garlic, ginger, soy sauce, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Stir well to combine and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.

Finish and Serve

Remove from heat, sprinkle with sesame seeds and chopped green onions. Serve hot as a side dish or over rice.
