Eggplant bell pepper soy sauce in a frying pan

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 10 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to fry eggplants and bell peppers with soy sauce in a frying pan? Prepare your food. Rinse the vegetables under running water, remove the stalks and seeds of the pepper. Cut the blue ones into circles about one centimeter thick, and then in half. Pour a small amount of vegetable oil into a frying pan, heat it over high heat and fry the eggplants. Cook them until golden brown on both sides.

2. STEP 2

   

   Remove the eggplants from the pan (you can use paper napkins to get rid of excess oil). Peel the onion, rinse in water and chop coarsely.

3. STEP 3

   

   Add a little vegetable oil to the same pan if required, as the eggplants can absorb it completely. Send the onions to fry. Stirring, cook for a few seconds (vegetables fry very quickly in a hot frying pan).

4. STEP 4

   

   Remove the onions with a large spoon and add them to the previously fried eggplants.

5. STEP 5

   

   Next, fry the bell pepper, cut into large pieces. Cook while stirring for a few seconds.

6. STEP 6

   

   Also use a spoon to remove the finished pepper from the pan.

7. STEP 7

   

   Prepare the dressing. Add starch and pressed garlic to the soy sauce. Add just a little sugar and salt if desired. Stir.

8. STEP 8

   

   Remove the remaining oil from the pan using paper napkins and return all the fried vegetables to high heat.

9. STEP 9

   

   Pour the soy-garlic sauce into the vegetables in a thin stream.

10. STEP 10

    

    With your free hand, continuously stir the eggplant and pepper. Cook the vegetables in this way for a few seconds until the sauce thickens.

11. STEP 11

    

    Remove vegetables from heat and sprinkle with finely chopped herbs. Cilantro, parsley and green onions work well. Cool or leave the dish hot. The eggplants and peppers are ready, you can serve them!

I love oriental cuisine. As an option, I suggest cooking Chinese eggplants in soy sauce with honey and starch.

For lunch I decided to cook eggplants, bell peppers and soy sauce in a frying pan. I slightly changed the order of frying the vegetables. First, I fried the bell pepper for no more than a minute, added onion to the pepper, fried everything together for about a minute (over high heat), removed the fried vegetables from the frying pan with a slotted spoon into a separate cup, and sent the chopped eggplants into the frying pan. Once the eggplants were nicely browned on both sides, I added fried onions and bell peppers to the pan. In a thin stream I poured the soybean dressing with starch and garlic into the vegetables, quickly mixed everything, sprinkled with herbs and removed from the heat. This is a very tasty, spicy salad prepared in the traditions of Asian cuisine. It is very good both hot and chilled. I recommend cooking it! Thanks for the recipe, Zhemchuzhina!

Eggplant, bell pepper, soy sauce in a frying pan, a salad with amazing taste and aroma! The sweetness of the pepper counters the creaminess of the eggplant beautifully. Paired with this gorgeous dressing, it’s so delicious!
