Eggplant Tomato And Green Onion Curry


Adapted from vij's restaurant in vancouver. I have halved the recipe and reduced the amount of oil. This is delicious as a side or as a main. When buying eggplant, compare eggplants of the same size and buy the one that weighs the less. It will have more meat and fewer seeds.

Steps


Chop the green onions , the white parts , 1 / 4 inch long and the green parts 3 / 4 inch long.
Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl , combine yogurt , chili powder , turmeric , cayenne and salt.
Add eggplant , tomatoes and onions and stir well to make sure the veggies are well coated.
In a shallow heavy pan , heat oil on medium-high heat for 45 seconds.
Pour curry into the pan and stir well.
Saut about 3 minutes , reduce the heat to medium-low and cover.
Simmer for another 10 minutes , stirring once halfway.
Turn off the heat and stir once more.
If you are not serving the curry right away , remove the lid or it will become to mushy.
