Treat your family to a magnificent, robust, and highly aromatic Sichuan comfort classic with this rapid Spicy Eggplants With Minced Meat. This screaming-hot stir-fry sears tender Chinese eggplant wedges with seasoned lean minced pork or beef, garlic, ginger, and a bold spicy bean reduction paste.
This rich wok-fired vegetable main pairs its savory ground meat foundation with our favorite comforting pasta skillets, matching the style in our family-sized Creamy Pasta And Ground Beef. If you enjoy alternative traditional Mediterranean bakes that layer tender eggplant slices with rich melted cheese and herb reductions instead, explore our elegant Melanzane Alla Parmigiana (Eggplant Parmesan).
