    Great flavor! I used ground turkey instead of pork and swapped the proportion of eggplant and meat because that’s what I had. I was a little wary of cooking unseasoned eggplant and ground meat, but following the directions leads to a great deal of flavor in the end. I would love to try adding something green next time. To make it healthier, I could probably add half the amount of butter called for.

    Made this with udon and substituted small chopped zucchini for the eggplant. Really delicious and savory--kids didn't love it, but that might have been the zucchini.

    Fast, easy, and tasty. The miso butter elevates it.
