STEPS

1

Cut off the stems of the eggplants and slice them in half lengthwise. Score the skin side diagonally at 5mm intervals, then rotate and score again to create a crosshatch pattern.

2

Heat sesame oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Place the eggplants skin-side down and cook until the skin becomes vibrant and slightly charred. Flip the eggplants, cover with a lid, and steam over low heat for about 5 minutes until tender.

3

Transfer the eggplants to a serving plate. Drizzle with ponzu sauce, and top with bonito flakes and chopped green onion.
