Stir Fry Eggplant With Chicken Strips And Wood Ear Fungus



I love eggplant cooked in anyway.  I saw this recipe in one of the chinese food magazine and I knew I have to try it out and no regrets.  It was one simple to whip up and yet tastes so good.  This looks like restaurant dish.  All you have to do is cut the eggplant , chicken meat,  ( you can use the chicken thigh or breast meat )   , wood ear fungus and spring onions ( homegrown ) into strips.  Not much work ..right ?  Marinade the chicken strips with oyster sauce, chinese cooking wine and a teaspoon of corn flour and a drop of sesame oil.  And you are ready to stir fry all the ingredients and serve this delectable dish with your piping hot rice !
