Soak the eggplant in salted water for a few minutes before coating with starch, then squeeze out excess moisture—this helps reduce moisture and results in a crispier fry.
When reducing the sauce, cook it long enough for the sugar and soy sauce to blend and thicken so the sauce adheres well to the eggplant.
