Ingredients

3 tablespoons canola oil

4 Chinese eggplants, halved lengthwise and cut into 1 inch half moons

1 cup water

1 tablespoon crushed red pepper flakes

3 tablespoons garlic powder

5 teaspoons white sugar

1 teaspoon cornstarch

Directions

Heat the canola oil in a skillet over high heat. Cook and stir the eggplant until soft, about 4 minutes. Stir in the water, red pepper flakes, and garlic powder.
