Steps:

• Prepare the sauce by combining all the ingredients in a bowl and mixing well. Set aside while you prepare the rest of the recipe. Heat oil in a wok to 350 degrees F.

Remove all but about a teaspoon of oil from the wok. Turn the heat to high and add the garlic. Cook, stirring, for about 5 seconds then add the sauce. Let the sauce come to a simmer for 30 seconds. Add the eggplant back to the wok and cook for 10-15 seconds while stirring. Combine the cornstarch and water to make a smooth paste. Stir it into the eggplant mixture until it reaches the desired consistency. Serve hot. Recipe Source: PF Chang's

• Heat 2 more tablespoons of oil in the skillet over medium-high heat, and cook and stir the onions just until they begin to soften, about 30 seconds. Stir in the garlic, and cook and stir an additional 30 seconds. Mix in the soy sauce, water, oyster sauce, chili garlic sauce, sugar, and black pepper, and stir to form a smooth sauce.
