 NOTE: (yellow bean sauce from Thailand is saltier than sauce from Hong Kong
 or China, so season to taste)

 Slice unpeeled eggplant crosswise into slices 1/8-inch thick.  Cut tofu
 into 1/2-inch cubes.  Heat oil in skillet; add garlic and stir-fry until
 light brown (don't burn!).  Add eggplant and tofu and cook for 5 to 7
 minutes.  Add remaining ingredients; mix gently.  Serve immediately, since
 eggplant and basil turn dark if dish sits after cooking.  Makes 3 to 4
 servings.
