Miso Eggplant

Method

  1. First slice your eggplant in half then cut a deep chris-cross in the fresh on the eggplant.
  2. On a hot pan sear the eggplant flat side down until golden and nicely caramelized.
  3. To make the Miso glaze combine Miso paste, sesame seed, mirin, and sake into a bowl and mix. Spoon this over your eggplant making sure the glaze penetrates between the earlier cuts.
  4. Place the eggplant in the baking tray and bake in the preheat oven at 180C for 20 minutes (time will vary depending on how big your eggplant is).
  5. For the last 10 minutes pour the Kikkoman Soy onto the eggplant and finish baking.
  6. For our salad cook soba noodles as directed on the package, segment an orange, finely slice your radishes (use a Japanese mandolin if you have one) and pick a handful of mint and coriander.
  7. Plant your eggplant with salad on top.
