Wow! It exceeded my expectations! There really was nothing but the seasoning, except for the eggplant. I really enjoyed my dinner. I think I'll make this often. I've saved the recipe~^^

Rihani 2021-10-09 14:41:02

I really have a novice palate and don't even touch eggplant... but I tried cooking it according to the recipe just in case, and it was really delicious~ lol. However, I think you only need to apply a little seasoning. I tried applying it to just one side and it was good^^ I'm definitely going to make this again~

Yeonimom 2022-07-29 18:48:31

It's so delicious! I was worried because my kids don't usually eat seasoned or stir-fried eggplant, but they really enjoyed it. I didn't have butter, so I grilled it with margarine, and it turned out great. This is the best eggplant recipe ever!

Pogny 2021-09-12 21:36:48

It's delicious! The combination of soy sauce, garlic, and butter is so good. I also liked that the texture wasn't mushy like seasoned eggplant!

I used cooking oil instead of butter since I was eating it as a side dish for rice, and it turned out delicious~ I think it would be even better if I reduced the sugar a little. I grilled the eggplant first, but since I was too lazy to cook it properly, I just added the sauce and simmered it. Maybe that's why the texture isn't quite what I was expecting, but the sauce was tasty, so it was a success haha. I think you need to slice it a bit thicker than expected to preserve the texture and eat it like a steak. I recommend 2cm!

So I won't forget the delicious thing Comment 2023-03-25 11:46:35

My child asked me to make it again the next day. It's great! I used that much seasoning and two eggplants per roll, and it was just right. Since a slight eggplant smell comes up when it cools down, make sure to eat it while it's warm.

Sanghyeon 2026-03-01 20:07:59

It's so, so delicious! There were a lot of reviews saying it was salty, so I used 2 eggplants, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon sugar, 0.4 tablespoons vinegar, 1/2 tablespoon minced garlic, and 2 tablespoons butter, and the seasoning was just right! The butter flavor blended well with the soy sauce and garlic taste, so I devoured both of them in no time.

Cornsugaususu 2021-11-06 19:25:25

This is my third time, but baking it in an oven at 180 degrees for 10 minutes just doesn't quite capture the taste of pan-frying. I think the key is to bake it until it's crispy and dry enough to capture that characteristic mushy texture of eggplant. It's a shame I'm only realizing this taste now that eggplant season is over.

Kim Min-seon 2024-12-04 19:17:11

This is seriously, seriously so delicious. If I make the sauce exactly as described, I think it would be enough for two eggplants. I only added one spoonful of sugar, but it was sweet enough. Since it contains butter, it isn't strictly vegan, but I think it would be great for those trying to cut down on meat when they are craving it.

Sarangppyongppyong 2025-08-22 17:58:50

My husband, son, and I all absolutely hate eggplant. I happened to have two eggplants on hand, so I tried making this with some skepticism, but all three of us gave it a thumbs up. I think I'll buy eggplants with my own money next time to make this. How do they make it taste this good? I'm truly amazed.

Chukbok-i-ga-one-two-three 2025-09-22 22:27:39

I've tried cooking eggplant dishes so many times, but this recipe was the only one that was a success!! I only had lemon dill butter, so I used it instead of regular butter, and it was so fragrant and absolutely delicious!! It was an easy recipe, but the taste was amazing!

Minju 2022-06-11 15:01:18

Based on various reviews, I cut the sugar and the total amount of seasoning in half, and it turned out perfect as a side dish for rice. (The seasoning is just right, almost to the point of being a bit lacking. If you prefer it saltier, you can just make a little more.) Four of us polished off four large eggplants in no time. It pairs so well with the butter aroma!

penguin 2022-07-28 12:39:28

It’s not sour just because it has vinegar, and not sweet just because it has sugar (I reduced the sugar a bit). It’s actually quite good on its own as an eggplant steak, rather than just as a side dish for rice. It’s different from the seasoned eggplant I eat every day, so it’s worth a try. Thank you. I ate it all, so I don't have a picture. Heh.

Eunjinwithjs 2025-02-05 09:32:00

This is my second time making this^-^ It was delicious~ I think cutting them to about 2cm thickness is best. If they are too thin, they seem to get mushy easily~ I plan to make this often. Thanks for the great recipe

jJjaerii 2021-11-12 13:29:34

I took a bold gamble using Cham Sauce instead of soy sauce, and it is seriously, incredibly delicious..... Wow, the flavor of the butter and the seasoning sauce... it is simply a divine taste. Seriously, this is the best recipe of all time on 10,000 Recipes!!!!!!!!!!!

Geumsonheuksujeo 2023-10-07 16:31:13

Wow! I used to always make seasoned eggplant, but this is revolutionary. My sons, who never used to eat eggplant, ate it all and asked if there was any more. The recipe is easy and quick, and the seasoning is simple—just whipped up with whatever you already have at home! It has it all: sweet, salty, and even tangy.

Sreureuseureureul 2022-06-07 20:54:23

Wow, this is amazing.. The eggplant tastes like garlic butter bread.. I wondered why they added vinegar, but it turns out it all had a purpose. If I eat eggplant like this, I could easily eat three or four in one meal. Now I won't have to worry about what side dishes to make with eggplant, and I think I'll be able to buy a lot when it's on sale.

I am me 2026-08-10 09:51:07

The sauce is so delicious! I didn't used to like eggplant, but ever since using this recipe, I've been eating it consistently. I sprinkled salt and pepper on the eggplant, coated it in cornstarch, and grilled it until it was crispy, then just dipped it directly into the sauce. The combination of the pungent, sour, sweet, and salty flavors from the raw garlic is amazing. It also gives off a Chinese food vibe. Thank you for the delicious recipe! Oh, and I happened to try dipping store-bought mini pork cutlets in it too, and it was so good! lol

Songjubu 2021-10-21 12:41:49

I made this for my husband who hates eggplant, but as expected, he didn't eat it... It was delicious, though haha. He says the smell of the seasoning is the best~ Maybe because I like eggplant, but I really enjoyed it with rice! Thank you^^

Lillian 2026-07-22 18:07:27

If you add a spoonful of red chili powder to two eggplants and grill them, it makes for a clean yet slightly spicy side dish. I tried both the basic version and the red chili powder version. It was delicious using two eggplants at a time. Thank you for the great recipe.

Kim Jeong-hee (Hyein's Mom, Pilgyo's Mom) 2024-09-06 09:46:19

It was a total disaster for me... The flavors just don't blend well. There's butter, sugar, sourness, and even a burnt taste ㅠㅠ It's not as easy as stir-fried eggplant, so I don't think I'll be able to make it again.

Kkaebok's Mom 2021-09-24 13:27:55

Eggplant goes really well with butter haha. I wasn't sure how to cook eggplant, but I think I'll be making this often now.

A word from the chef 2021-09-24 19:06:13

Nannaya 2025-07-19 22:11:28

Since there was a lot, I tripled the amount of seasoning. I grilled them in three batches; if I seasoned them while grilling, I would have to wash the pan every time, so I grilled them thoroughly, put them in a bowl, poured in the seasoning, and lightly tossed them to prevent them from getting mushy. Still, the recipe called for grilling them in the pan while brushing on the seasoning and grilling again... so I wondered if the seasoned eggplant would taste different, and quickly tossed it over the pan flame. However, I think it would have been better to just finish it as a seasoned salad. It would have been clean if I had sprinkled sesame seeds at that point. What a shame. Also, don't apply all the seasoning you made; save some for later. If you use it all, it will be too salty. And next time, I plan to slice the eggplant diagonally into large pieces without butter, grill it until golden brown in a dry pan, and then toss it. Grilled eggplant is really delicious.

Pippilongs6 2022-06-20 08:13:10

I was told to use less sugar, so I did. It was delicious, but since I made several batches and had leftovers, the butter flavor was a bit strong after it cooled down. I should either use a little less butter or make only enough for next time.

Jeongjeong-iㅡ 2026-08-24 18:41:39

I can't remember the last time I ate eggplant this deliciously. I used two eggplants and doubled the seasoning, and my family and I finished every last bit in one sitting. It's really tasty.

Faith in Spring 2025-08-26 19:59:58

I didn't have butter, so I substituted it with cooking oil. I cooked this with one eggplant and one king oyster mushroom. The texture of the king oyster mushroom is also interesting. The sauce isn't too salty, and it's a total rice thief—so delicious!! My husband asked why I made such a small portion and said he was disappointed. We ate it all up in a flash, so I didn't even think to take a picture.

Fortune Cookie 2022-10-24 22:09:10

It was so delicious that I made it twice! I thought it might be too salty if I added all the seasoning, so I made the sauce separately and used two tablespoons with one eggplant and a handful of mushrooms. It’s a simple yet sophisticated dish with exotic flavors from the butter and eggplant. Thank you for sharing the recipe :)

gettoogo 2025-05-25 20:16:22

Wow~~ I always failed when grilling eggplant because it was undercooked and the butter didn't soak in, but cooking it in the microwave made it tender and the butter aroma is so savory I didn't have much butter, so I only added one spoonful, but it was still delicious enough. Seriously, it's the best.

Park Ji-hye 2021-08-19 21:07:45

I didn't really like eggplant... I went through a long period of denial before finally becoming a fan thanks to this dish hahaha.

A word from the chef 2021-08-20 10:52:57

Thank you. ^^ The eggplant steak is a real delicacy. ^^

sue 2024-01-03 13:16:27

Wow... it's really delicious. I was complimented on my cooking, with people saying it tastes like restaurant food. I read the reviews and only added one spoonful of sugar, and it's just right—sweet and sour, and really tasty.

Kim Ha-yeon 2021-08-16 14:03:50

I don't usually eat eggplants. But even the kids eat this well. The eggplants at the farm were always a concern, but this year we ate every single one without wasting any. Thank you.

A word from the chef 2021-08-16 19:41:03

Shinbu Gamseong 2022-07-24 11:00:28

I had three eggplants my mom picked for me at the farm, so I decided to give this a try. It's an easy recipe, but it tastes great! I really liked that it didn't require many ingredients. In particular, the subtle hint of butter gives it a wonderful flavor.

Moksa-tang 2021-10-04 19:18:49

It's so delicious! I thought it might taste better the thinner it was, so I sliced ​​it thin, but following the recipe, 1-2 centimeters is the best!!

A word from the chef 2021-10-05 17:57:33

Thank you.

Everything 2026-07-02 18:31:25

I really enjoyed the meal!! Thank you for the recipe!! Here is the recipe I am saving for myself. 2 eggplants, 2 T soy sauce, 0.5 T sugar, 0.5 T vinegar (it would be good to increase slightly), 1/2 T minced garlic, 1 T butter

Kim Na-ari 2021-09-25 23:03:46

I added a little oyster sauce to the seasoning sauce and it's so delicious.

A word from the chef 2021-09-26 11:06:38

It would be even tastier with oyster sauce~ I should try adding oyster sauce next time too.

Bongitantan 2022-12-04 20:01:36

It was a unique eggplant dish. Referring to the reviews, I used two eggplants and added half of the seasoning, and the flavor was just right. However, the butter flavor was strong, so it was fine when eaten with seasoned leafy greens.

5555rim 2021-08-27 12:32:50

It's delicious. I burned the first batch and had to throw it away, so it seems you have to control the heat very carefully.

A word from the chef 2021-08-27 19:02:30

You can grill it slowly over low heat.

summer 2025-07-11 18:03:10

I wonder if the eggplant is important. Since I only had large, plump ones overseas, I tried it, but it ended up tasting too much like the seasoning, so I was sad. It looks delicious, though. Instead, if you cook the eggplant only until just before applying the seasoning and add it to tomato pasta, it tastes good. My star rating is a disclaimer just for myself, stating that I wrote it completely differently from the recipe, regardless of taste.

Coco09 2022-09-26 18:30:37

If you make the seasoning exactly as is, it's HUGE and inedible. The sauce itself is tasty, but even though I only used about two-thirds of it, it was still too salty. As others have said, using just half is enough.

xbox1588- 2021-08-24 19:21:13

It was too salty, so it was a failure. Eggplant is really hard to cook.

A word from the chef 2021-08-25 11:24:47

The recipe itself isn't salty... I guess you prefer less salt. Thank you.
