General Tso's Eggplant

Recipe I based this off of was for chicken but there were these cute little eggplants on sale at the grocery store and I had to buy them. My boyfriend also doesn't particularly care for eggplant so, voila! Eggplant General Tso's was created (and loved by all)! 

Eggplant General Tso's
8 small Asian eggplant - cubed
Tossed with 3/4 cup tapioca flour (I didn't measure, but enough to coat eggplant)

Heat a large scoop of coconut oil and fry eggplant until crispy and starting to brown (6ish minutes each side) 

Meanwhile, heat up the following for a sauce. 

1/2 tbsp coconut oil
1 tsp sesame oil
2 heaping tbsp of Tessamaes ketchup
2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
1 tbsp grated garlic
1/2 tsp minced ginger 
1 tsp coconut flour (to thicken)

Once eggplant is fried and sauce is hot and bubbly, toss together. Serve over cauliflower rice or zoodles (zucchini noodles) and top with green onion. Delish!! Can't wait to try this recipe with chicken.
