Cook egg In a small bowl, whisk together eggs and soy sauce. Heat a drizzle of oil in a large non-stick fry-pan on high heat. Pour 1/3 egg mixture into the pan to cover. Cook for about 1 minute, until almost set. Flip and cook a further 30 seconds. Set aside while you cook the remaining egg mixture. Slice thinly.

Cook eggplants Return pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Cook eggplant in batches, for about 1 minute each side, until golden and tender. Carefully wipe pan clean between batches. Set aside. Alternatively, cook eggplant on BBQ grill.
