Steps:

• Make the spicy sauce by whisking together the oyster sauce, soy sauce, water, vinegar, sugar substitute and sambal oelek chili paste. Set aside until ready to use.
• Preheat the oven to 400°F.
• Place the eggplant cubes on a baking sheet that has been sprayed with cooking spray. (I prefer to line the sheet with Reynolds non-stick foil.) Bake for about 20 minutes, until thoroughly cooked.
• Melt the margarine in a large skillet or wok. Stir-fry the garlic and green onions until the garlic is soft. Add the sauce and let the mixture simmer for 2 minutes.
• Add the eggplant cubes to the sauce. Simmer for a few more minutes. Mix the cornstarch with the water and stir into the skillet. Let the sauce simmer until thickened. Transfer to a platter and serve.

Steps:

• Slice the eggplant into thick slices and drop them in a large bowl of lightly salted water.
• Mix all the other ingredients and check the taste.
• Add more salt or spices if needed.
• Heat a skillet and coat it generously with oil.
• Thickly coat the eggplant slices one at a time in the besan mixture and place on the skillet.
• Shallow fry only 4 slices at a time.
• Cover the slices with a lid so the eggplant cooks through.
• Turn them over once and do not recover.
• Remove them, and place on a plate.
• You can prepare them ahead and pop them into a moderate oven for 5 mins before serving.
• Garnish with chopped coriander and serve on a bed of crisp shredded cabbage leaves.
