Thai Basil and Eggplant Stir Fry Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • First, assemble your ingredients for the stir fry. Chop the onion, hot pepper, 2 cloves of garlic, and eggplant; combine them in a bowl.
  • Prepare your sauce. In a small dish, combine the 2 reserved tablespoons of soy sauce, the brown sugar, the sesame oil, and the reserved garlic.
  • In a separate small dish, dissolve the cornstarch in 2 tablespoons of water.
  • Heat the peanut oil in a wok or large saute pan.
  • When the oil is hot, add the chopped vegetables and the sambal oelek. Stir fry the vegetables for 5-6 minutes, adding the broth toward the end of the cooking time to keep the vegetables moist.
  • Season the veggies with a tablespoon of soy sauce, and stir fry for another minute.
  • Pour the sauce mixture over the stir fry, then the cornstarch mixture.
  • Stir well, then add most of the basil. Let it wilt.
  • Remove the pan from heat and serve.
  • Garnish with the remaining basil and serve over steamed rice.

    This was *so* good! My husband and I both liked it a lot and we will make it again. Plus, it was easy to cook, which is always a plus.
