I really wanted to try this in an air fryer, and so that's what I did. It still took only 20 minutes, but the us a finite amount of oil, with zero water added, and neither felt nauseous from excessive oil afterwards. I might have put a little too much sriracha, but the two of us that adore spices had no problem consuming this. Nice combination of flavours, needed nothing else, but we also had some sauté du porc with cabbage and the flavours complimented one another.

Would chunk the eggplant but was tasty and will make again. Served with vegetable fried rice.

Added capsicum and zucchini, needs more sauce but don't add too much soy as gets too salty

Instead of chili sauce used sambal olek and a a 1/2 tsp fish sauce. It was a hit with the family, would make this again. Make sure you add the one cup of water to the sauce as the instructions aren’t that clear.

Delicious flavorful easy this delicious was perfect as we just got married on Friday and arrived home. We had all the veggies in our garden and the ingredients in hand. We added mushrooms as well as orange peppers. My hubby said make it again!!!

Thoroughly enjoyed this quick and simple recipe. I didn’t add any salt and I used some yellow onion instead. Turned out nicely. Next time I may add a little more vinegar and try and track down Szechuan pepper corns.

I would add only 1/2 cup of water or increase the amount of the Szechuan mixture, otherwise it becomes very bland.

Dry as written, eggplant doesn’t cook through. Added a cup of water at the end with the eggplant and sauce to simmer with some sliced mushrooms for 5-10 minutes which did the trick, then it was yummy.

we made it about 50% bigger and it still went faster than expected, it was a luxurious surprise for the family in the middle of the week

i made mine with chicken breast, doubled the sauce recipe and served it on white rice. It doesnt look nearly as deliciously caramelized as in the main page picture but it was very tasty.
