Szechuan Eggplant Recipe | Yummly (2024)

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.

Great. Easy to make. I put it over rice

Amazing flavor and potentially addictive.

I would give this recipe a 3 out of 5

Excellent flavor! This is a keeper. Have made it twice now and we’ll liked each time

This is a great and simple recipe! It turned out delicious!

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

So much flavor! Made it as directed, but did add ginger. Definitely will make it again and try it with other vegetables

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

Perfect! I added some fried tofu to make it even better. Thanks for the yummy recipe =)

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.

I thought it was just fine not terrible not amazing

I added ginger, fish sauce and capsic*ms. Quite good

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.

It was delicious! I will definitely make it again.

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

Needs a bit more flavorWe added some Spicy sauce and that did it!

Hi 4 years ago

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 can’t believe how easy and delish this is! I will definitely be making this again and adding chicken or shrimp.

I made it as per the recipe - and it was absolutely delicious - I will definitely be making this again!

It came out really good

Turned out bloody good. I added some broccolini and it was a great idea.

Very easy and tasty receipe. I added a bit too much water and too little spice, but nonetheless.. Everyone were pleased.

Turned out great! We loved it. We ate it with plain rice. Will probably make this again!

It’s delicious. I served it with brown rice ban mee. My husband and I enjoyed it every much. Thank you!

absolutely delicious!! have made several times since i first tried it in september. i used veg broth instead of water tho. didn’t use any cornstarch

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.

Easy, quick and very tasty. My husband always asks me to make it.
