Steps:
- Chop eggplant into long sticks of about 2-inch (5-cm) long and 1/4-inch (6-mm) thick.
- Place eggplant in a large bowl and add water to cover. Add 1 teaspoon salt, mix well. Place a pot lid on top to keep the eggplant under water for 15 minutes. Drain and pat dry.
- Add all the sauce ingredients into a bowl. Stir to mix well.
- Sprinkle eggplant with cornstarch and mix by hand, until eggplant is evenly coated with with a thin layer of cornstarch.
- Add oil to a large nonstick skillet and heat over medium high heat until hot. Spread eggplant across the bottom of the skillet without overlapping (you might need to cook in 2 or 3 batches). Fry the eggplant one side at a time until all the surfaces are charred and the eggplant turns soft, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Cook the remaining batch(es) with the same method. If the skillet gets too hot and starts to smoke, turn to medium heat.
- Once the eggplant is all cooked, remove the pan from the stove. Drain extra oil and only leave 1 tablespoon in the pan by pouring the oil into a heatproof bowl, or wipe the pan with a few layers of paper towels attached to the front end of a pair of tongs.
- Add the Sichuan peppercorns into the pan. Cook over medium heat until the peppercorns turn dark brown. Remove them with a spatula and transfer to a small bowl (*Footnote 3). Add the pork. Cook and chop with your spatula, until separated into small bits and cooked through. Add green onion, garlic, ginger, and dried chili peppers. Stir a few times to release the fragrance.
- Stir the sauce again to completely dissolve the cornstarch, then pour into the pan. Stir until the sauce thickens. Return the eggplant to the pan and quickly stir to mix everything well.
- Turn to the lowest heat and taste the sauce (be careful, it will be very hot!) Adjust flavor by sprinkling a bit more salt or sugar, if needed. Turn to medium heat and mix well again. Transfer everything to a plate immediately.
- Serve hot over steamed rice as a main.

Steps:
- Roll cut washed eggplants into long strips (try to keep some skin on each one). Then soak the eggplant strips in salty water for around 15 minutes. Move out and drain. Coat with starch (optional but I recommend using since this helps the sauce attaching on the eggplants)
- Prepare a bowl; mix all the ingredients for stir fry sauce. Then set aside.
- Heat up 2 tablespoons of oil in wok or a pan and fry the eggplants until slightly browned by batches.
- Heat another 1 tablespoon of oil in wok, and fry mince pork until crisp and browned. Add doubanjiang and chopped pepper to continue cooking for 1 minute for red oil. Add garlic, chopped peppers, green onion white part and ginger to stir-fry for the aroma.
- Stir in the sauce. Cook for a while until the sauce is thickened. Mix well and make sure the eggplants are well coated.
- Move from wok, sprinkle chopped green onion! I highly recommend serving this with steamed rice. The magic sauce can turn plain steamed rice into something extremely delicious.

YU HSIANG EGGPLANT (AUBERGINE)
I have not tried this recipe myself it is submited for an ISO request. This spicy eggplant dish is a little sweet, a tiny bit sour, and highly flavorful. The dish tastes just as good if you omit the meat. Eggplant is such a "meaty" vegetable in texture that it'll still make a very filling meal, when paired with a big bowl of steamed rice.

Steps:
- Cut the eggplant into 2" long sections. Halve, then cut into thirds or quarters [sticks approximately 2"x ½"x1/2"].
- Steam the eggplant using any steaming method; I usually place a steaming rack in my wok, add half cup water & turn the heat to high, then place the ingredients on a dish and place the dish on the rack in the wok. Cover and steam. The eggplant will take approximately 15-20 minute to cook.
- When tender [you can easily poke a chopstick, fork, etc. through one of the pieces], remove from heat.
- If the veggies are sitting in a deep pool of liquid, drain, but not too thoroughly. Set aside.
- Mince 3 cloves garlic; finely chop 2-3 stalks scallions. Set aside 1 tbsp chopped scallion for garnishing the final dish.
- Heat 1 tsp cooking oil on medium [if using an electric stove, heat on high].
- Add ½ pound ground pork [skip to step 4 if you're doing the vegetarian version]. Break up the pork using a metal spatula to help it cook quicker.
- When the meat is no longer pink, add the chopped garlic and scallions. Stir.
- Add 2 tsp chili bean paste, 1 tsp sugar, ½-1 tsp vinegar, 1/2 tsp salt and 1 tsp soy sauce, then stir. Let cook for 1-2 minute If the mixture looks very dry, add ¼ cup water.
- Taste; add more salt if it doesn't taste salty enough, more chili bean paste if it's not spicy enough, a pinch more sugar if you find it a tad too salty.
- Stir in the cornstarch paste; cook until the sauce thickens [a minute or two].
- Pour into a shallow bowl and drizzle with sesame oil.
- with the remaining scallions. Serve with plenty of steamed white rice.

Steps:
- The small purple Asian eggplant is best but the western dark skinned variety (large or baby) can be used be used.
- If using the western eggplant you may want to peel the skin since it has a tendency to be quite tough.

- Heat oil in wok to very hot.
- Carefully stir in eggplant and cook, stirring constantly, until half done.

- Reheat the wok with a little more oil and stir fry the garlic, ginger and scallions for about 30 seconds- until they give off a strong aroma.
- Add the mu-er, water chestnuts and bamboo; stir fry about a minute.
