Step 1

Gather ingredients.

Step 2

Prep the ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine miso, sake, mirin, sugar and soy sauce. Note: If using a lean piece of pork such as loin, sprinkle the meat with one tablespoon of sake and set it aside for 5 minutes.

Step 3

Heat a large frying pan (or stirfry pan) on medium heat. Add about ¼ cup of vegetable oil and cook eggplants. When the eggplant is soft, take it out on a paper towel. Set it aside.

Step 4

Using the same frying pan, stirfry pork until it is almost cooked through, take it out on a dish, and set it aside.

Step 5

Heat the frying pan again, add a teaspoon of oil and stirfry onion and pepper. When onion and peppers are soft, return the eggplant and pork to the pan. Add miso mixture, continue cooking on medium heat until sauce thickens.

Step 6

Sprinkle sesame seeds and garnish with chopped chives (optional). Serve hot or room temperature with steamed white rice.
