Ingredients
Instructions
-
1. Prepare the Eggplant
- Preheat your oven to 200°C.
- Slice the eggplants in half lengthwise and score the flesh in a crosshatch pattern, being careful not to cut through the skin.
- Lightly salt the eggplant halves and let them sit for 10 minutes to draw out excess moisture. Pat dry with a paper towel.
2. Make the Miso Glaze
- In a bowl, combine the miso paste, soy sauce, mirin, rice vinegar, sesame oil, water, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Mix until smooth.
3. Glaze the Eggplant
- Place the eggplant halves on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Brush the miso glaze generously over the scored flesh of the eggplants.
4. Roast the Eggplant
- Roast the eggplants in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until they are tender and the glaze is caramelized.
5. Garnish and Serve
- Remove the eggplants from the oven and let them cool slightly.
- Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions before serving.
