Earth’s Three Treasures (Vegan)

Ingredients

• Eggplant: 1
• Green bell peppers: 2
• Potatoes: 2
• Cornstarch: 2 tbsp
• Salt: 1 tsp
• Light soy sauce: 3 tbsp
• Dark soy sauce: 1 tbsp
• Oyster sauce: 1 tbsp
• Sugar: 1 tsp
• Garlic: 3 cloves

Instructions

1. Prepare the ingredients
   • Potatoes: Peel and cut into bite-sized chunks.
   • Eggplant: Cut into bite-sized chunks as well. Sprinkle the eggplant with 1 tbsp of cornstarch and toss to coat evenly, which helps reduce oil absorption during frying.
   • Bell Peppers: Cut into small pieces.
   • Garlic: Finely mince.
2. Fry the vegetables
   • Add a generous amount of oil to a pan and heat to 150°C (300°F). Fry the vegetables in sequence:
   • Fry the eggplant for about 3 minutes.
   • Fry the potatoes for about 5 minutes, until golden brown.
   • Fry the bell peppers for just 10 seconds.
3. Prepare the Sauce
   • In a small bowl, mix half a bowl of water, 3 tbsp light soy sauce, 2 tbsp oyster sauce, 1 tbsp dark soy sauce, 1 tsp sugar, 1 tbsp cornstarch, and 1 tsp salt.
4. Stir-Fry
   • Add a small amount of oil to the pan and heat it. Sauté the garlic until fragrant, then pour in the sauce mixture. Add the fried vegetables and stir well. Turn the heat to high to thicken the sauce, then serve hot.
