Ingredients:

Serving

2 lbs eggplants (2 small ones or 1 large)
2 tbsp salad oil
1/2 tsp cumin seed
1 tbsp fresh ginger, minced
1 medium red onion, coarsely sliced
1 tsp turmeric
1/2 green pepper, seeded and coarsely chopped
2 tsp ground coriander
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1 large tomato, peeled and chopped
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup fresh coriander, coarsely chopped ( cilantro)

Directions:

Place whole eggplant in a shallow pan and bake in a 400-degree oven until very soft (about 50 minutes). Cool slightly. Cut a slit in eggplant and scoop out pulp; discard large seed packets, skin, and stem. Coarsely chop pulp; place in a colander to drain.
Heat oil in a wide frying pan over medium heat.
Add cumin seeds, ginger, and onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is soft.
Stir in turmeric, green pepper, coriander, ground cumin, paprika, salt, pepper, and tomato. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tomato releases its juices (about 5 minutes).
Add water and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to low and simmer, uncovered, for 10 minutes.
Stir in chopped eggplant and cook for 5 minutes to heat through and blend flavors.
Just before serving, stir in coriander.
