Sichuan Fish Fragrant Eggplant
This savory **Stir-Fried Eggplant with Garlic and Chili** is a mouthwatering dish that combines tender eggplant strips with a rich, tangy sauce for a burst of flavor in every bite. The key to this recipe lies in pre-cooking the eggplant to reduce moisture, ensuring it absorbs less oil while staying perfectly tender. Aromatic garlic, ginger, and spicy bean paste create a fragrant base, while a sweet and tangy sugar-vinegar sauce adds the perfect balance. For an extra kick, red chili oil enhances both color and heat—though it’s optional for those who prefer milder flavors. Finished with fresh scallions, this dish is quick, flavorful, and pairs wonderfully with steamed rice. A must-try for eggplant lovers craving a delicious, restaurant-quality meal at home!
