Thai Oyster Sauce doesn't contain MSG and is less salty, and has a richer flavour! I buy Mae Krua Brand, which means "mother of the kitchen," and has a picture of a woman cooking on the label.

I would cut the eggplants into fairly thick slices, and then cut each slice into matchstick-shaped pieces to echo the thickness and shape of the asparagus. Then, I would leave out the garlic at the beginning. I would add the eggplant and the garlic at the same time, while the chicken is still laying on the bottom of the wok, browning. Scatter the garlic first, then the eggplant and then start stirring them all together after the chicken has browned. (You may need extra oil, because eggplant soaks up oil like nobody's business. Just so you know...) That is how I would do it. And thank you for recommending my blog to people--that makes me happy. When you have made it with the eggplant, let me know how you like it! Blessings! Melissa–sorry I am so late with this reply.

Should it be cooked separately and added with the asparagus? By the way, I'm a huge fan of your site! I recommend it like nobody's business. Hi Barbara,

By the way, I’m a huge fan of your site! I recommend it like nobody’s business.
