Stir-fried eggplant looks mouthwatering. It is such a versatile and delicious dish, I love how the eggplant soaks up all the savory flavours of the sauce. Thanks for sharing this healthy and tasty recipe.

I had a hankering for Korean style eggplant with some spicy ramen and this delivered! Thanks for the recipe!

This is my go- to recipe nowadays when I have eggplants. I used to just eat gaji namul.

Thank you for all your recipes. My children eat all of them especially the bossam, LA galbi etc. And bukeoguk/miyukguk etc.

But I love eggplant a lot. And sometimes I put pickled green chilli on top- instead of in the dish. Home made pickles of course. Thank you for helping my kids eat Korean food outside of Korea. I find that I like the taste of your recipes you see and have tried over 20 to 30 of them from this blog.

I just made this exactly as written and OH MY this was VERY good. Simple and easy to prepare and such great balanced flavors. Had this for a light dinner with some fresh rice. Thank you for sharing this recipe. I’ll be making this again and again.

Hello! I have a general question about all your recipes that call for sugar – can I use plum syrup instead of sugar? Or would sugar be better? Thank you!

This was so good and SO SO delicious. Absolutely wonderful. Thank you.

I didn’t have mirin, but replaced it with half rice vinegar and half chinese black vinegar, and I added a bit of dark sweet soy sauce. It was great (and I am grateful that it was so easy to pull together!).

This was so wonderfully delicious. Will make again and again! Also just tried your Japchae recipe, and it was equally fantastic. I’ve already shared both recipes with family and friends. Can’t wait to try more of your recipes. Thank you so much!
