【Stir-Fried Eggplant with Chinese Sausage】
by MaomaoMom
My friend’s parents recently came from Szechuan, a Chinese province known for its hot and spicy food. They gave me some of their homemade Szechuan sausages. I made a nice combination dish of eggplant and sausage. This mildly spicy dish goes well with rice.
In order to avoid the traditional way of deep frying the eggplant, I used Gastrolux non-stick cookware to sauté the eggplant with just a little olive oil for better and healthy cooking. The result is excellent.
