Main Dish

Grilled Japanese Eggplant W/ Ponzu

Ponzu is a citrus flavored soy like sauce that adds a complex flavor to this marinade. Soy sauce is a good substitute. Both products are a fermented produce that contains probiotics. Produce such as Japanese eggplant is a prebiotic that works with the probiotics to maintain gut health.

Grilled Japanese Eggplant

¼ cup Ponzu or soy sauce

¼ cup rice wine vinegar or other favorite vinegar

½ cup olive oil

1 tablespoon brown sugar

 

Slice eggplant very thin lengthwise. Marinate in soy sauce mixture for at least 10 minutes. Lift from marinade and place on preheated grill. Grill for about 2 minutes on each side. Serve with Couscous or rice pilaf and feta cheese.

This type of slaw is often served in fish tacos or use as a side for beans and rice. The lime juice is a good source of vitamin C and increases the micronutrients that are available for absorption.
