Steps
Step 1
Set oven temperature to 400°F, or 200°C. After cleaning, pierce the aubergine several times with a fork. Roast the eggplant for thirty to thirty-five minutes, or until the skin is browned and the flesh is tender, on a baking sheet. While bringing the roasted aubergine out of the oven, allow it to cool for a few minutes.
Step 2
Toast the sesame seeds in a dry skillet over low heat for two to three minutes, or until they are aromatic and lightly toasted, while the aubergine is cooling. Take care not to scorch them. To prepare the sesame soy dressing, combine the low-sodium soy sauce, minced garlic, minced ginger, and toasted sesame seeds in a small bowl.
