Step 3
Once the carrots are soft, push the eggplant and carrot mixture to one side of the pan. Add chopped peppers, garlic cloves, scallion whites, and ginger threads. Stir-fry until fragrant, then mix with the eggplant and carrots. Add a small amount of salt, soy sauce, and sugar, and stir-fry briefly. Cover the pan and simmer over medium heat for about 3 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent the eggplant from sticking to the pan. Once the eggplant is completely soft, add the scallion sections and serve.
