Best 9 Eggplant With Miso Sauce Recipes

MISO-GLAZED EGGPLANT

Steps:

• Cut the eggplants in half lengthwise and cut off the stem and calyx. Using the tip of a paring knife, cut an incision down the middle of each half, making sure not to cut through the skin, but cutting down to it. Salt the eggplant lightly and let sit for 10 minutes. Meanwhile preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment and brush with sesame oil.
• Blot the eggplants with paper towels and place, cut side down, on the baking sheets. Roast for 15 to 20 minutes, until the skin is beginning to shrivel and the flesh is soft. Remove from the oven, carefully turn the eggplants over, and preheat the broiler.
• To make the glaze, combine the mirin and sake in the smallest saucepan you have and bring to a boil over high heat. Boil 20 seconds, taking care not to boil off much of the liquid, then turn the heat to low and stir in the miso and the sugar. Whisk over medium-low heat without letting the mixture boil, until the sugar has dissolved. Remove from the heat and whisk in the sesame oil.
• Brush the eggplants with the miso glaze, using up all of the glaze. Place under the broiler, about 2 inches from the heat, and broil for about 1 minute, until the glaze begins to bubble and looks shiny. Remove from the heat. Allow to cool if desired or serve hot. To serve, cut the eggplant halves on the diagonal into 1- to 1-1/2-inch slices.

NOBU'S EGGPLANT WITH MISO

• Heat oven to broil. Line a baking sheet with paper towels; set aside. In a large heavy-bottomed saucepan, heat 2 inches of oil to 360 degrees. Working in batches, place eggplants in pan, skin side up, and fry 1 minute. Turn and fry 30 seconds more. Transfer eggplants to baking sheet and let drain.
• Transfer eggplants, skin side down, to an unlined baking sheet. Spread each half with slightly more than 1 tablespoon miso. Broil until miso begins to darken and caramelize, about 30 seconds to a few minutes, depending on the strength of your broiler. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and garnish with pickled ginger and plums.

EGGPLANT WITH MISO SAUCE

Steps:

• Place eggplant, cut-side down, on a grill whose coals are red-hot but no longer flaming. Cover and cook for three minutes. Uncover, turn eggplants, and brush the cut side with miso sauce. Cover and cook for 2 or 3 minutes, or until the eggplant is soft and slightly charred.

• Position an oven rack in the upper part of the oven and preheat the broiler. Line a pan with foil.
• Whisk the miso and soy sauce together in a small bowl. Trim the eggplant stems and halve lengthwise. Lightly score a diamond-like pattern into the flesh of the eggplant. Put the eggplants, skin-side up on the prepared pan.
• Broil the eggplants until the skin discolors, about 1 minute. Turn the eggplants over, lightly brush the top with oil, and broil until softened, about 4 minutes. Brush each eggplant half with the miso mixture and broil until the top is bubbling, about 1 minute. Serve.

• Remove the seeds from the chilies and chop into rings.
• Mix the sake, mirin, sugar, and shoyu in a small bowl. (I tend to replace the sugar with stevia but stevia turns bitter when heated. If using stevia, make sure the heat is quite low before adding the mix to the wok.)
• Mix the red miso (dark red aka miso or hatcho miso is recommended) with 3 T water to make a paste.
• Heat the oil in wok on high and add the chili. When the oil starts to smoke, add the eggplant. Stir fry for bout 8 minutes or until tender. Lower the heat to medium.
• Add the sake mixture to the pan and stir for 2-3 minutes. Lower the heat if the sauce starts to burn. Add the miso paste and cook for another 2 minutes.
• Serve hot.
