Ingredients
Instructions
-
In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, grated ginger, minced garlic, honey, and rice vinegar to create the marinade.

Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the marinated eggplant cubes to the skillet, making sure they are in a single layer.
-
Cook the eggplant for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are golden brown and tender.
