Eggplant with Vegan Minced Pork

Ingredients（serves 2）：

1 big eggplant 
100g vegan minced pork 
A pinch of minced ginger 
A handful of coriander

Seasoning sauce：

1 tbsp vegetarian oyster sauce 
1/2 tbsp soy sauce 
A pinch of sugar 
1 tsp sesame oil 
cornstarch water

Steps︰

1. Chop off the stem of the eggplant. Slice the eggplant lengthwise into thick strips. Rinse and soak in water. Add a pinch of salt (to prevent the eggplant from browning because of oxidation). Remove the eggplant strips from the water and squeeze out as much water as possible.

2. Heat a wok. Add a lug of oil. Add the minced ginger and stir-fry until golden.

3. Add the defrosted vegan minced pork. Stir-fry until fragrant. Set aside.

4. Heat the wok again and add another lug of oil. Stir-fry the eggplant quickly over medium heat for around 3-5 minutes.

5. Add the stir-fried vegan minced pork. Give it a good mix. Pour in the seasoning sauce. Stir-fry further and toss well. (If the sauce is too thick, add some water, then stir-fry briefly.)

6. Sprinkle with a handful of minced coriander. Stir-fry to mix well. Dish up and garnish with a little bit of fresh coriander. Ready to serve.
