- 1 large eggplant cubed
- 3/4 cup teriyaki sauce
- 1 cup white or basmati rice, cooked
- sesame seeds garnish
- green onions garnish
Prep the eggplant. Cube the eggplant into large chunks. In a mixing bowl combine the eggplant and the teriyaki sauce. Marinade for 20 minutes.
Cook the eggplant. Heat skillet over medium-high heat. Once your pan is hot, add your eggplant a little at a time. If you need to cook the eggplant pieces in 2 batches that's fine too. Cook for 10 minutes, stirring once in a while. You want to get a nice char on the eggplant and let the sauce thicken up a bit.
Serve. Serve over rice and sprinkle with sesame seeds and green onions.
