\"Gujarati<\/a><\/p>\n

Thought I’d make a Gujarati styel eggplant to go with Gujarati dal<\/a> the other night and found this recipe for Gujarati eggplant and potatoes on\u00a0Mysoorean<\/a>. I decided to skip the potato though. It turned out really nice!<\/p>\n

1 tablespoon olive oil
\n1\/2 teaspoon cumin seeds
\n6 small eggplants chopped
\n2 green chilis chopped
\n1 teaspoon ginger minced
\n1 Trader Joe’s Frozen garlic cube or one minced garlic clove (optional)
\n1\/2 tsp turmeric powder
\n1\/2 teaspoon chili powder
\n1\/2 teaspoon coriander powder
\n1 tablespoon jaggery
\n1-2 tomatoes chopped
\nSalt
\n1-1\/2 cup water
\nSqueeze of lime
\nA few sprigs of cilantro chopped<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Heat oil in a saute pan and throw in the cumin seeds. Once they brown, throw in the eggplant and cook for a few minutes.<\/li>\n
  2. Add the green chilis, ginger and garlic and cook for another few minutes. Then add the turmeric, chili powder, and coriander powder and cook for another minute or so. Then add the jaggery, tomatoes, and salt and cook until the tomato softens.<\/li>\n
  3. Add 1 cup of water and cook until the eggplant is totally tender, adding more water if necessary. Once the eggplant is tender and pretty dry, add the lime and cilantro.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
