Dengaku eggplant is a famous dish from Nagoya, but it can be a little fiddly to prepare. This tray baked version, however, is incredibly simple.

Ingredients

  • 2 eggplants, cut into 3cm cubes

  • 2 tbsp olive oil

  • ¼ cup miso

  • 1 tbsp sugar

  • 1 tbsp sake

  • 2 tbsp mirin

  • 2 spring onions, thinly sliced

Method

  1. Heat your oven to 200C fan-forced (220C conventional). Place the eggplant in a baking dish and toss in the oil. Roast for 20 minutes until the eggplant is lightly browned.

    Combine the miso, sugar, sake, mirin and 2 tablespoons of cold water together and mix to a smooth paste. Pour the paste over the eggplant and stir to coat. Roast for 10-15 minutes, until the eggplant is soft and the miso caramelised. Transfer to a serving bowl and scatter with the spring onion.
