Method

1. 1 Cut the eggplant, potatoes, and bell peppers into cubes of about 3 cm in size.
2. 2 Coat the eggplant and potato slices with a thin layer of cornstarch to prevent them from absorbing too much oil.
3. 3 Fry the potatoes for 4 minutes, then the eggplant for 3 minutes, and the bell peppers for just 40 seconds, frying each separately.
4. 4 Frying each type separately is essential; frying them together will cause the faster-cooking types to burn first.
5. 5 Mix soy sauce with sugar, black vinegar, and cornstarch to make a sauce.
6. 6 Sauté the garlic, then pour in the sauce and cook for 40 seconds. Finally, add all three ingredients and stir for 20 seconds.
