Best 4 Eggplant And Green Peppers Sauteed With Miso Recipes

EGGPLANT AND GREEN PEPPERS SAUTEED WITH MISO.

Steps:

• Cut of stem of eggplants and peel leaving alternate stripes of skin.
• Cut into 1cm slices crosswise (I cut into 1cm chunks as I can't get Japanese eggplant and am using the big, fat purple ones).
• Soak in water for 5 minutes and then drain.
• Deseed the peppers and cut into bite-sized pieces.
• Heat the sesame oil in a frypan and saute the eggplant over high heat; add the peppers and saute further.
• When the vegetables become soft, add the miso and sugar and saute until the miso begins to caramelise.
• Add the mirin, sake, dashi and cook over a medium heat until the liquid is almost gone.

EGGPLANT WITH SWEET MISO

Steps:

• Remove the caps from the eggplant and cut them in half lengthwise.
• Put the peanut oil in a large skillet, preferably non-stick, over medium heat. About 2 minutes later, add the eggplant, skin side down. Cook until nicely browned, adjusting the heat and rotating the pieces so they brown evenly, about 10 minutes. Turn and cook on the flesh side until brown, then continue to cook, turning as necessary, until tender, another 10 minutes or so.
• When the eggplant is almost done, combine the miso, sugar, mirin, and vinegar in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook for about 1 minute, stirring. Remove the eggplant and spread a thin coating of the miso mixture over each half; top with the sesame seeds. Serve hot or at room temperature.
• You can also grill or broil this recipe: Start a charcoal or gas grill or preheat the broiler; the rack should be about 6 inches from the heat source. Brush the eggplant slices well with oil. Place, flesh side down, on a baking sheet or directly on the grill. Broil or grill, turning as necessary, until browned on both sides, brushing with more oil if the eggplant looks dry. Proceed with step 3.
