Steamed Eggplant with Chile Sauce
2 large eggplants or 6-8 slender Asian eggplants
salt
3 tbsp light soy sauce
1 1/2 tsp Chinkiang or black Chinese vinegar
2 tsp sugar
2 tbsp chili oil with chile flakes
1 tsp sesame oil
If using large eggplants, trim them, cut in half, and sprinkle with salt, leave for 1/2 hour to draw out bitter juices.
Steam eggplants over high flame for 5-10 minutes until tender. Peel if desired. Cool, cut into chunks or cut lengthwise.
Combine soy sauce, vinegar, and sugar in a small bowl, stirring to dissolve sugar. Add oils.
Serve eggplants with sauce as a dip.
