6. While these are sautéing, take a bowl and in it mix the soy sauce, chili garlic paste, hoisin sauce, vinegar, water, and cornflour.
7. Beat the mixture so that there are no lumps.
8. Pour this mixture into the wok with the garlic & onions.
9. Now add the eggplant and peppers that you set aside and let the whole things come to a boil.
10. The sauce should start thickening and coating the vegetables.
11. Taste to make sure salt and spice to your desired level.
12. If you need more, add salt and / or chili garlic paste to your level of satisfaction.
13. Garnish with cilantro.
14. It will look gorgeous! You can also optionally sprinkle some roasted peanuts (whole, deskinned) to get a crunchy texture to the food.
15. Serve Spicy Eggplant & Capsicum Curry with white rice or brown rice, or as a wrap with lettuce leaves.
