I watched this video and made it the very next day. Marion I have NEVER followed one of your recipes and not liked it/ thought it was mediocre. Every dish I make of yours blows my taste buds away. You are one of my favourite content creators and hands down favourite cooking show across all platforms and methods. Thank you, thank you, thank you
God created you… don’t ever change your spots! You make light work of “cooking” uniquely your own. You are loved and appreciated as you are…for your culinary talent, combined with your charming sense of humor. Thank you for trying so hard to educate those of us who are willing students.
I am always telling the waiters at an Asian Restaurant here in Zambia, who serve Thai food, that their food should taste like what I see in Marion's recipes 😂😂😂😂 can't wait to try this one out at home!
Cook on your own but the migrants that moved to Zambia cool differently then you would get in china Australia or America. It's probably to cater to your culture since you aren't into spicy. I could be wrong but come here to America I'll make it perfect for you.
I have tried a few of your recipes, and I enjoy getting updates and trying something new. You seem to always pick some of my favorites. Or present something that I know I'm going to love. This is the first time I'm commenting because I was literally blown away by this dish. I had it once in a Szechuan restaurant in New York and have always kind of looked for it. Thank you!! fantastic :-) Your chili oil is the bomb!
I love watching you cook. Your great. So lovely just the way you put each ingredient together, your as o as your food looks. God Bless. Always believe in yourself. And your food will be as great as you are 😉😍🤩
I just tried your recipe today and it was super efficient! I've never made eggplant this way before (since I usually fry it) and it turned out great! Looks delicious, thank you! 😁
Omg so yumm! 😋 I wish I can get hold of your chilli sauce! Steaming the eggplant is also a good technique I wish I have thought of that. As we either boil it or put it in the oven. But will definitely try this technique thanks Marion! ✨
Watched it this morning and off I went to the asian store to get some eggplants. Just made this recipe w opting out the peppercorns because I don't like the taste. Pretty legit. I even partnered it w fried tilapia (no salt) and ended up dipping the meat in the oil. Super good.
Love this recipe, thx Marion. I am from Melbourne Australia and would love to know where to buy green Sichaun pepper. The pepper I use seems to be really insipid.
Great video. I was was actually looking for Thai spicy eggplant but I think I will use this as inspiration as I have some Szechuan peppercorns on hand, as well as most of the other ingredients. I think I may try baking my eggplant though. I don't own a good steamer and I think that method might work.
Where is back home? Just wondering . Here in Northern California we just call them eggplants. I’m getting my garden ready for planting and eggplants have a large space as I love them cooked many ways. 🍆
I would usually fry the eggplant. Do you find it a bit lacking texture wise? I know it makes it oilier - but the stuff at the restaurant has that beautiful crispy edge on the eggplant which I think gives an added dimension. Keen to try it this way though :) Think I might just add some crunchy garnish like fried crushed cashews
I cant wait to try! Any recommendations on other veggies/protein we can use this sauce with? Over pasta? Something about the numbing fiery sensation just makes me want to pour it over everything!
I think you can use this on any steamed veggies honestly. As a matter of fact, i dipped my fried tilapia (no salt) in the sauce and it was great! It can also top tofu
Hi Marion...if I buy bamboo steamer do I need to purchase a separate metal disc to sit the steamer on as it cooks? or can the steamer be set directly into the simmering water? Thanks (can't wait to try this recipe, adore eggplant)
Aloha, Marion. Thank you for this recipe. I’ve been wanting to cook a spicy aubergine recipe with the lovely local-grown produce available here in Hawaii 🍆 🇺🇸 🇬🇧 Query: I noticed you peeled with a serrated peeler - was this deliberate or will a non-serrated peeler be fine?
Please make a list of sauces and spices for your recipes. At least a must have. I really really love your chilli oil recipe. I keep some always. So good. Especially on bland American foods. I don't care for eggplant can I use another squash?
You can definitely boil eggplant! I do it all the time as a healthier alternative to frying. You have to keep it whole or at least in large chunks though, and cut it up after it's cooled a bit. Some vinegar in the water and making sure it stays submerged helps it stay purple. I'll definitely try steaming it now though.
Decades ago, a Thai restaurant I liked had a to die for garlic eggplant. I have been unable to find a recipe for it, but after watching your video, I may be able to modify it to approximate that Thai dish.
That was delicious ! I added 1 or 2 tbsp of water because I thought it looked too thick, but it wans't a good idea because the eggplant still render a bit of water when you gently mix them with the sauce. It was delicious nonetheless, but next time I'll be sure not to add any water. Thank you for this recipe!
cutting it thin helps the steam cook it easier. If you cut it too thick, the middle of the eggplant would not be soft and tender as shown but a little firm.
Unfortunately I can’t find any of these ingredients where I am (Eastern Europe and Istanbul) but I remember eating this dish in Shanghai and liking it a lot 😊
685 👍done Eid Mubarak dear really so nice and delicious recipe amazing Sharing full time watching Like your new video nicely prepared thanks for sharing 🌸💕👌
It was hilarious watching my two friends from Sichuan grimace at the video. Apparently they fry the eggplants in. Even in restaurants from what I recall in Chongqing and Chengdu trips.
I love Sichuan peppercorns but I notice you just ground them up whole. How do you prevent it from being gritty if you don't remove the black seeds first? I am trying to learn to like eggplants and this recipe sounds like a winner.
Your recipe looks great. Of course it will be very tasty to eat. I love it .l will definitely try it.You will tell me in the comments. How do you like my recipe? Thanks.
Hi Elle 77: I don’t see any reason why you couldn’t roast or shallow fry eggplant. Not a fan of mushy eggplant either, so I would use either method and cut it in cubes. Grilling is another option.
Marion i was heartbroken because i didn’t have eggplant BUT i had white fish! Steamed it, tossed it in the sauce, incredible. Merci!
Marion, this looks absolutely divine! I'll definitely have to give it a try - thank you!

I recently experienced that numbing quality of Szechuan peppercorns you love so much. Now I love it, too. Thanks, Marion 😃
Welcome to the world smh 😭😂

I LOVE eggplant. So underrated. Always looking for more ways to cook it!
By whom? It's huge in Middle East, across Asia including India, China & Japan. Everywhere in the cooking of Italy, Spain, Greece, North Africa.
I love how ever dish is undersold. This looks great & much easier than I imagined. Thank you.
I LOVE this recipe, I've done it over and over since you posted it...thank you Marion😍😍😍
The food looks great as always, but that steamer also looks amazing. What brand is it?
I found it!! Amazon is selling this kind of steamer. Jia inc is the brand

2:06 that makes so much sense because I never have patience to salt my eggplants and they’ve never been particularly bitter.
Thank you so much dear Marion! Love love looooove eggplant!!!! This recipe looks delish. Please continue the good work

I love eggplants! We call them brinjals back home ♥️
Where is back home? Just wondering . Here in Northern California we just call them eggplants. I’m getting my garden ready for planting and eggplants have a large space as I love them cooked many ways. 🍆
Wow, will try making it soon...
definitely trying this with steamed rice, thank YOu!
The food looks great.
Thank you so much for this recipe. I am one of aubergine's fans, and will cook it as soon as I get the ingredients. It is a wonderful side dish. 👏👏👍👍

Looking lovely
Wow! Looks so delicious and nice! Perfect!
Love you videos! What brand is the steamer? Never seen one like that with a ceramic lid.
Favorite dish
That sauce looks sooo good!
this looks so goood!!!
I would love to know more about the pot you used… saw you use it another video.. it looks multi purpose 😁.. defs going to try this dish
The food you made looks amazing but the steamer caught my eyes! What brand is that please?
Aloha, Marion. Thank you for this recipe. I’ve been wanting to cook a spicy aubergine recipe with the lovely local-grown produce available here in Hawaii 🍆 🇺🇸 🇬🇧
Query: I noticed you peeled with a serrated peeler - was this deliberate or will a non-serrated peeler be fine?
I'd guess that the serrations help you keep some of the skin on - you could achieve that with a normal peeler if you wanted I reckon
@@cheekyb71 thanks. I have both kinds; just curious…
Good job Marion, keep it up!
oooo making this ASAP!!
Please make a list of sauces and spices for your recipes. At least a must have. I really really love your chilli oil recipe. I keep some always. So good. Especially on bland American foods.
I don't care for eggplant can I use another squash?

Looks awesome Marion! Quick one - do we need to alter the recipe if we use regular eggplants (other than cutting them a bit thinner)? Thanks!
cutting it thin helps the steam cook it easier. If you cut it too thick, the middle of the eggplant would not be soft and tender as shown but a little firm.
I love it. In Japanese it's called mabo nasu.
Unfortunately I can’t find any of these ingredients where I am (Eastern Europe and Istanbul) but I remember eating this dish in Shanghai and liking it a lot 😊

Hello fellow Australian. You have beautiful Recipes 😋 can't wait to try them
It was hilarious watching my two friends from Sichuan grimace at the video. Apparently they fry the eggplants in. Even in restaurants from what I recall in Chongqing and Chengdu trips.
I'm obsessed with this pot she's used in recent vids. Anyone know what brand it is?
Omg this is amazing
Looks yummy....

I love you Marion 🥰
Hi. Delicious. Why do they always cut in planks? I did with circles and was just as good? I split in 2 pans lol. Tyvm
That looks delicious 🤤🥢🥃🍜
Perfect timing.
That’s dinner 😘
I need that steamer :-o where to find it?
Calling all vegans out there...this is a great meal for you guys and gals!!! thanks Marion!
Spicy and yummy 😋
I Love the clay streamer, fancy...thats eggplant just need extra Rice lol...
Wow😮
Yummy 😋 😋 i made eggplant 🍆 dish last week 😋 but i will definitely try this dish next
LOL. If I had tried to replicate this recipe at home, it would have been a disaster. Thanks for sharing. This looks yummy but easy to make.
I'm still thinking If i should make this my favorite
Yummy
Yummy 😋
Cool
Nice
Nice spices
Omg. Yummy 😋
In Chinese restaurants, they actually fry the eggplants but I guess for a healthier choice; steaming will be a better alternative
Your recipe looks great. Of course it will be very tasty to eat. I love it .l will definitely try it.You will tell me in the comments. How do you like my recipe? Thanks.
It looks so good! Can we roast or shallow fry the eggplant as well? Steamed eggplant isn't exactly what my husband would eat! 😅
Hi Elle 77:
I don’t see any reason why you couldn’t roast or shallow fry eggplant. Not a fan of mushy eggplant either, so I would use either method and cut it in cubes. Grilling is another option.
@@joannepeyton1654 yes, I thought as much. I'm try roasting it first as see how it turns out.
Good
Cut green onion 2 inches length. Eggplant (de-skin whole egg plant, pan press & stir fried with sufficient oil till throughly cook soft)
Steamed and not fried, YES!
How long will the homemade chili oil keep at room temp? in the fridge?
