- Eggplant prep: If your eggplant slices seem dry or stiff, lightly salt them and let sit for 10 minutes to draw out moisture and soften. Pat dry before rolling.
- Bake instead of fry: For a lighter option, brush rolled eggplant lightly with oil and bake at 400°F (200°C) for 20–25 minutes, turning halfway through.
- Gluten-free option: Make sure to use gluten-free soy sauce and oyster sauce, and ensure cornstarch is labeled gluten-free.
- Add veggies: Add finely chopped carrots, mushrooms, or water chestnuts to the filling for extra texture.
