Meanwhile, make the teriyaki sauce. Combine the sugar, soy sauce, garlic and ginger in a large saucepan. Pour over 300ml water, stir well, then bring to a gentle simmer. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring frequently, or until slightly reduced. Stir through the cornflour and rice vinegar, then continue to simmer for a further 5-6 minutes, or until thick and glossy.
Mix the roasted aubergine into the teriyaki sauce. Make sure everything is lovely and hot before serving over white rice with a side of green veg, a sprinkle of sesame seeds and sliced chilli.
