After the Beginning of autumn solar term, I can feel the breath of autumn that’s the season I love  so much. The air is no longer sultry but cool. It is also very happy to perceive the passage of time from the change of seasons. Today’s Chinese shredded eggplant and green pepper stir fry is a quick and easy dish for people who don’t have more time to spend on cooking.

Shredded eggplant is easy to be cooked through. What I want to highlight is the crispy green pepper shreds added, which increases the spiciness and refreshing taste. Vegetarians will also like it which is the rice consumer.

How to prepare

The main job of making this dish is shredding, shredding eggplant, and shredding pepper.

Perhaps for those who are not good at knife skill, cutting eggplants and peppers into shreds is a relatively difficult task. But I believe that as long as you like Chinese food and cooke dishes often, your ability to cut vegetables into shreds quickly will become stronger.
