Soledad's Journal

I remembered this delicious dish I have had a couple of times in a Chinese restaurant with my friend K: aubergine in black bean sauce. I 'cheated' and bought ready made black bean sauce (last night as well), so all I had to do was dice the aubergine, a green pepper and an onion and fry them all and then add the sauce. I had it with brown rice (trying to be healthy; hence the brown). I am very pleased with how it turned out; the aubergine really soaks up the flavour of the black bean sauce, and the green peppers work really well with the dish, despite the fact that I normally don't like green peppers (I am a big fan of red, yellow and orange ones, but the green taste too bitter for me normally).
