Directions
Eggplant (Aubergine) -Spinach Curry,This curry is an adaptation of a recipe I found posted on several different websites. When I first served this dish, people commented on its professional, restaurant-like quality. However, the original version called for a lot of butter, so I played with the ingredients and preparation until I found what worked best for me. Instead of steaming the eggplant cubes, you can saut them in 1/4 cup of ghee until they turn golden, but I prefer this less fatty version.,This recipe is great! I added a small can of tomato paste. Tasted like the real deal!! Thanks for posting,A really lovely recipe. used ¼ tsp hot chilli powder in place of the cayenne and used two tins of tomatoes as we like a really “saucy” curry. I also added the yoghurt as a garnish rather than mixed through. Served with stuffed potato paratha, it was a really lovely meal.
