- 2 cups peanut oil or 2 cups vegetable oil
- 1 lb eggplant, cut into sticks the size of French fries
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon light brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon spicy bean sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon rice wine
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 3 garlic cloves, minced (1 tablespoon)
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh ginger
- 4 whole dried chilies, soaked in water for 10 minutes, dried and chopped
- 1 cup thinly sliced pork tenderloin
- 3 green onions, thinly sliced
Method
- In a wok, set over medium-high heat, heat the oil to 360°.
- Add half the eggplant to the oil and fry for about 5 minutes or until the eggplant is limp.
- Remove the eggplant with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel-lined sheet pan. Cook the remaining eggplant in the same manner.
- In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, brown sugar, bean sauce, rice vinegar, rice wine, sesame oil, and cornstarch. Set aside.
- Pour off all but 2 tablespoons of the oil in the wok. Add the garlic, ginger and chiles and cook 1 minute. Add the pork and stir-fry for 2 minutes. Return the eggplant to the wok. Stir the sauce and add it to the pork. Boil until the sauce thickens, about 2 minutes.
