Recipe - Stir-Fried Eggplant

2 tablespoon Sesame oil (or
a mixture of sesame
oil and clear vegetable
oil, to taste)
6 Szechuan peppers
1 lg Eggplant, cubed
2 Garlic cloves,
crushed or minced

In a wok heat the oil, then toss in the Szechuan peppers. After about 30
seconds (long enough for the scent to be released) toss in the cubed
eggplant and the garlic. Stirfry over moderately high heat until the
eggplant is tender (about 10 minutes.) Remove the peppers before serving.

NOTES:

* A simple Chinesestyle recipe for fresh eggplant My favorite for
eggplants out of the garden is to stirfry them with garlic and hot peppers
in sesame oil, according to this simple recipe.

* I've heard it said that the Armenians judge the value of a woman by how
many ways she can cook eggplant.
