Categories     Dinner, Main course

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2-3 tbsp vegetable oil
1 large or 2 smaller aubergines , cut into 2.5cm chunks
1 large onion , cut into half moons
2 garlic cloves , thinly sliced
1 red chilli , thinly sliced
small pack coriander
2 tbsp soy sauce
2 tbsp Chinese black or red wine vinegar
1 tbsp golden caster sugar
1 tsp cornflour , dissolved into 2 tbsp water

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, mix together the sauce ingredients. Heat a large frying pan and pour in 1 tbsp of the oil. Season the aubergine and brown on all sides until soft (you may need to add another 1 tbsp oil as they cook) - this will take about 15 mins. Set aside.
  • Pour the remaining oil into a wok. Add the onion and garlic, and stir-fry for 3-4 mins on a low heat until the onion is soft and the garlic golden. Add the aubergine and pour the sauce over. Stir together, turn the heat down to low and cover with a lid for 2 mins. Take the lid off and stir-fry again for 1 min more. Serve with chilli slices and coriander sprinkled over.
