I made this eggplant in garlic and black bean sauce for dinner. I skipped the traditional way of deep frying the eggplant, and used Gastrolux non-stick cookware to sauté the eggplant with small amount of olive oil for healthy cooking. The result turns out excellent.

3) 1 tbsp light soy sauce, 1 tbsp premium soy sauce, 4 tbsp water, 1/6 tsp chicken broth mix;
4) 1 tbsp soy sauce paste, 1 tsp sesame oil.

Directions:
