(Net carbs per serving: 2.7g)

Ingredients
  • 5 tablespoons Oil (I use avocado oil)
  • 1 Tomato (medium)
  • 1 Eggplant (300g)
  • 3 tablespoons Onion (chopped)
  • 2 cloves Garlic
  • 1/2 teaspoon Mustard seeds
  • 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
  • 1 tablespoon Coriander seeds
  • 20 Fenugreek seeds (or Methi seeds)
  • 1 tablespoon Peanuts (dry roasted)
  • 1/4 teaspoon Hing or Asafoetida powder
  • 5-10 Curry leaves
  • 1 teaspoon Red chilli powder
  • Turmeric powder (a pinch)
  • Lime juice (from 1/2 a lime)
  • Red chilli flakes (optional)
  • Salt (to taste)
Instructions

  1. Cut the eggplant semicircles or small pieces and dip it in a bowl of water while cutting. Set it aside

  2. In a grinder jar, add coriander seeds, roasted peanuts, cumin seeds and fenugreek or methi seeds. Make a fine powder and set aside

  3. Set a wide pan on medium heat and add 5-6 tbsp. of oil (enough to cover the pan)

  4. Drain water from the eggplants, sprinkle some salt and fry the eggplant pieces in oil, till they turn golden brown and are soft. This should take ~6 min per side. Set the eggplant aside

  5. In the same pan, to the leftover oil, add mustard seeds, hing or asafoetida, curry leaves, onion and garlic

  6. Stir fry the onion till they turn translucent. This should take a minute or so

  7. Add tomatoes, sprinkle some salt and give it a stir

  8. Place the lid on for a minute or until the tomatoes turn mushy

  9. Add turmeric powder, the dry masala mix (in the grinder jar) and red chili powder

  10. Add a splash of water to the pan, so the masalas don’t burn

  11. Stir fry the masala for a minute

  12. Add the fried eggplant pieces and coat well with the spices

  13. Add salt (to taste)

  14. Add lime juice

  15. Sprinkle red chili flakes (optional)
