1. Preheat broiler. Place julienned eggplant in a baking dish. Add garlic and jalapeno and mix to coat eggplant.
2. In a separate bowl, mix a small bowl of soy sauce with vegan brown sugar. Make sure there is enough soy sauce to soak the eggplant in.
3. Pour the vegan brown sugar-soy sauce mixture over the eggplant. Broil eggplant for about 20 minutes, or until brown.
If you have more time, you can marinade the eggplant before broiling. I usually don't have time to prepare in advance and it turns out fine.
