Eggplant Miso Donburi with Shiso Leaves
An exquisite rice bowl featuring stir-fried eggplant glazed in a rich, sweet-and-savory miso sauce, topped with fragrant shiso leaves. It is quick to prepare and incredibly addictive. Chef's tips: (1) 💡 Coating the eggplant with sesame oil in a bowl before cooking prevents it from absorbing too much oil in the pan, resulting in a vibrant color and a tender, melt-in-your-mouth texture. (2) ⚠️ Soaking in salt water removes bitterness and prevents the eggplant from discoloring.
