Egg plant is a very versatile vegetable. Add to any preparation or just have it alone, it enhances the flavor. One of the meatless days and I tried and made this curry, very simple to do and requires a few ingredients.
Ingredients:
1 medium sized egg plant
1 medium sized potato
1 big sized tomato
1 tsp mustard seeds
3 tbsp oil
1 tbsp coriander powder
1 red dry whole chilli
1/2 tsp turmeric powder
1 tbsp ginger-garlic paste
1 bunch coriander leaves
1 cup water
salt to taste
Method:
1. Take a heavy bottom pan, add the oil, once oil is hot add mustard and the whole chilli. Cook on a low to medium heat at the start, as this will not burn the spices.Once they splutter, add in the spices turmeric, chilli, coriander, ginger-garlic. Cook for 2 minutes.
2. Add finely chopped tomato and cook till it has reduced to a paste consistency.
3.Cut egg plant and potato in cube shape, add to the pan once tomato has completely cooked.Toss in the chopped coriander. Add a 1 cup water and cook the curry till you can easily pierce the potatoes.
Serve with rice and enjoy.
