People will be delighted to eat this side dish because the sauce is simply incredible. You'll find dozens of ways to use any extra sauce-drizzled on cold pork or chicken, over steamed rice, or tossed with noodles. It combines a variety of exotic ingredients, such as Szechuan peppercorns and Chinese black vinegar-all of which are available on Amazon and will last for months in your pantry.

Time 30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 Japanese eggplants, (two or three depending on size)
kosher salt
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 teaspoon ginger, chopped
2 scallions, sliced on a bias
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 tablespoons red chili oil
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
1 tablespoon Sichuan peppercorns
2 tablespoons Sichuan bean paste
2 tablespoons Chinese black vinegar, substitute with balsamic vinegar
1/4 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon mirin
2 tablespoons Shaoxing wine, substitute with dry sherry
1 tablespoon packed dark brown sugar
1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Slice the eggplant into 1 to 2-inch segments, depending on the width of the eggplant. Set up a steamer on the stovetop. Season the segments with salt. Place the eggplant in the steamer in a single layer and cook until softened, about 8 minutes. Cool on paper towels.
  • For the vinaigrette, trim the garlic cloves and mash gently with the side of your knife, then finely chop the garlic. Peel and chop the ginger root.
  • Trim and slice the scallion on a bias. Save the white part for the vinaigrette and the green part for a finishing garnish. Keep the greens fresh by covering them with a moist, cool paper towel. Chop the cilantro.
  • To assemble the vinaigrette, put the three oils and the Sichuan peppercorns in a small pot set over low heat. Heat until sizzling, then strain out the peppercorns. Discard the peppercorns and put the oil back into the pot. Add the garlic and ginger and heat until sizzling but not browned. Add the scallion whites and Sichuan bean paste and stir. Add the black vinegar, soy, mirin, wine, sugar, sesame seeds and cilantro and bring to a boil.
  • Transfer the vinaigrette to a bowl and cool. Put the eggplant in a serving dish and season with the cooled sauce (depending on eggplant size, you may not need all the sauce-the sauce keeps for a week refrigerated) and sprinkle with the scallion greens. Finish with freshly ground black pepper, if you'd like a little more peppercorn flavor.

ROASTED JAPANESE EGGPLANT WITH CRUSHED TOMATO, PECORINO AND THYME



Roasted Japanese Eggplant With Crushed Tomato, Pecorino and Thyme image

This roasted eggplant was adapted from a recipe from the Phoenix chef Chris Bianco, who regularly showcases Arizona eggplant as an antipasto at his restaurants Pizzeria Bianco and Tratto. But it works just as well with thick sliced conventional eggplant, and tomato sauce or sweet peppers substituted for the heirloom tomato. The succulent roasted eggplant comes together with the comforting flavors of the thyme, garlic and tomato. Serve as a side, or pair with polenta or fresh bread to round out a main course.

Provided by Brett Anderson

Categories     dinner, lunch, vegetables, appetizer, main course

Time 50m

Yield 4 servings as an antipasto, or 2 as a main dish

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 small Japanese eggplants
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
Sea salt
Cracked black pepper
1 large, very ripe heirloom tomato
2 cloves garlic, crushed
4 sprigs of fresh thyme
2 ounces pecorino di Fossa (or Parmigiano-Reggiano), shaved or thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 450 degrees.
  • Peel the eggplant and place in a roasting pan or dish. Coat eggplant with 2 tablespoons olive oil, and season well with salt and pepper. Roast until tender and light golden brown, about 25 to 30 minutes.
  • While the eggplant cooks, hand-crush the tomato in a medium bowl and add garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt, remaining olive oil and thyme sprigs. Stir to combine.
  • When eggplant is tender and light golden brown, add tomato mixture to the roasting pan, and roast for another 10 minutes.
  • Scatter with pecorino and roast for about 5 minutes until cheese is melted.
  • Transfer to a serving dish, including the pan drippings, and serve hot.
