Ingredients


2 large eggplants - diced into ½ inch cubes
2 large ripe tomatoes - roughly diced
3 tbs ghee or oil
2 medium onions - finely chopped
1 tbs fresh grated ginger
1 tsp ground turmeric
½ tsp chili powder
2 tsp salt
1 ½ tsp garum masala

Instructions



  • Wash and dice eggplants and tomatoes - approximately ½ inch dice.
  •  Heat ghee in a heavy based pot and gently fry onion until it has a little bit of color.  Add ginger and fry a little longer - careful ginger doesn't stick to pan!
  • Add all spices and salt and mix well.  Then add tomatoes, mix well.  Finally add the eggplant and mix well.  
  • Cover the pot and turn to a low simmer. Stir occasionally to stop anything sticking to bottom of pan.
  • Cook until eggplant mix is thick and pulpy and most of the liquid has evaporated.
  • Serve with Indian bread or rice or as a side dish.
