Hi CiCi, thank you for sharing your recipe and also I'm admiring your pink plastic bowl. It looks so attractive. Do you mind telling me where you bought it?
Thank you for tuning in to this video! That bowl was here ever since I moved in to this house. Unfortunately, there isn't a brand on it. I hope it works out and have a wonderful weekend! :D
🧐🧐🧐🧐🧐🧐, WOWZ !!!!! ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Thank you for the tip with he egg plant, I could never figure why my home version of garlic eggplant always turn dark and soggy when I cook them. I will definitely try your suggestion!
I’m glad that the video is helpful! Thanks for watching! ☺️🍆
Wanderfull Chanel! Great
Many thanks!!
Great video! How long should we steam the eggplant for before adding to wok?
About 8 to 10 minutes over high heat until softened. 😊
Great Recipe
Thank you! ☺️
This recipe looks amazing! I'm definitely trying it after work. Quick question, is "Broad Bean Paste" the same as Touban Djan? Also, the recipe calls for salted chili peppers, but could I use pickled red peppers instead? Last but not least, do you think it would work with some dried Korean chili flakes and green Sichuan peppercorns for an extra kick? (finely chopped)
Thank you for asking! The Pixian broad bean paste is Sichuan-style doubanjiang, which is a little spicy. You could also replace it with the regular doubanjiang. And yes, you could also add other types of chili peppers, pepper flakes, and Sichuan peppercorns for additional flavors. Happy cooking! ☺️
I love the knife you are using. Where did you buy it?
Thank you! It's called CCK Small Slicer. It's from Hong Kong. :)
Love this, don't comment much but ran out of broad bean pasta. So used gochujang paste, was also very good. Already cut eggplant and scallions before noticed, you know great recipe when can swap 1 ingredient and still great, tyvm.
That’s a great replacement! I’m so glad that you enjoyed this recipe! Cheers 😊👍👍
@@CiCiLi 👍
My garden is still producing eggplants, so I'll try this today. Thank you for sharing this with us!
That's awesome! Keep me posted on how it comes out ☺️👍🍆
🌻خوشگله 🌻
Thank you so much for the delicious recipe 🙏🏻
But in my country can’t find this Chinese eggplant kind… do you think, it could be replaced with another kind eggplant?
Absolutely! Other types will do as well. 😊👍
When you deep fry eggplant they retain their color.
wow, that looks delicious!
btw you kinda sound like avril lavigne
This looks So delicious!!! 🤤 It reminds me of a similar dish from local restaurant but they included shrimp and water chestnuts.
What, if any, substitutions can be made for things like the bean paste, wine and chilies? Jalapeño? Thai? Serrano?
Thanks for the comment! If you can't find pixian bean paste, you could use other types of bean paste or miso. For the wine, you could use any cooking wine. And for the chilies, you could use anything else that you enjoy as well. See you at the new release this Friday!
Thank you!! My mom gifted me 3kg of eggplants and I'll be putting this to use! Looks delicious 🫶🏻 I'll update when I make this
Yay! Please keep me posted on how it turns out! 😋👍
@@CiCiLi I made it for last night's dinner! So savoury and delicious, thank you!!
Hello! I'd love to try your recipe this weekend. Just one question, the pixian doubanjiang I bought is not as red as yours, I wonder why? will the taste change? thank you! :)
It most likely doesn't have chili oil in it. You could simply add about 2 teaspoons of chili oil to the dish. It will taste good with or without the chili oil. I hope it works out for you! ☺️
@@CiCiLi ahhh thank you for your reply 💕
What if i don't have rice vinegar? Is it ok to use normal vinegar?
Yes, you could also replace it with other types of vinegar. Enjoy! ☺️
- I don’t like to deep fry. When I stir fry it takes a while to cook it but it loses its color. Is their an alternate way to cook it without losing its color.
- Also, I like thinner gravy. Should I add more water or reduce the cornstarch.
You could also steam or blanch eggplants in water. If you like a thinner sauce, you could reduce the cornstarch by half. Have fun cooking! 😊
How many eggplant to use ?
Is it ok to use ground chicken instead of ground pork?
Absolutely 😊👍
Hello, can I just use white vinegar pls, thank you!
Yes of course! :)
@@CiCiLi Thanks for replying!
Is broad bean paste like black bean? Tyvm
Thanks for asking! They are both made from soybeans, but they taste a bit differently. The broad bean paste I used is from Sichuan, and it's spicy. I've included an Amazon link ☺️👉www.amazon.com/Sichuan-Pixian-Boad-Paste-Chili/dp/B01M31VHNZ/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?crid=D0RYNSQWC461&keywords=board+bean+paste+spicy&qid=1680354166&sprefix=board+bean+paste+spicy%2Caps%2C67&sr=8-3

Indian masala batao
😢😭 mine didn't come out was still mushy after soaking it
I'm happy to see that you used avocado oil instead of "vegetable" oil which has now been shown to be worst for our bodies than animal oils.
I like how you 😏 speak
Thank you! 😁
