This was very good. I like more than my husband so only 4 stars. I used regular eggplant as that it is hard to find Japanese eggplant here. It was pretty easy and smelled wonderful.

I love eggplant too, and this recipe is a great (and easy) way to enjoy it. I made this as written using low sodium soy sauce. The sesame oil added a nice nutty flavor boost. Thanx for posting this; I'll make this again.

Well, I hate to say it, but I hate eggplants! The recipe is good, well written, easy to follow. This is the second time I've tried this vegetable and I just don't like it. I liked the flavor of the recipe, but hate the eggplant. So I encourage any eggplant lover to try this recipe, as the flavors are very good!
