Ingredients
Instructions
-
Cut the eggplant into little cubes. Dip them in water immediately to prevent browning due to oxidation.
-
Set a pan on medium heat and add oil. Add cumin seeds, mustard seeds, curry leaves (chopped up) and garlic (finely chopped).
-
Stir fry this for about 30 seconds (you don't have to brown the garlic)
-
Drain the water from the eggplant and add the pieces in.
-
Also add chopped tomato along with some salt to taste and give it a quick stir
-
Place the lid on and let the eggplant and the tomatoes get mushy (cover it for approximately 5 minutes). If the eggplant isn't mushy yet, stir fry and cover for 2 more min
-
Mash up all the eggplant pieces and the tomato pieces (using your spatula or a masher) to create a pasty and chunky texture
-
Stir fry the mashed up eggplant in that oil for approximately five minutes
-
Add red chili powder and a handful of coriander stems (stems have more crunch and taste than coriander leaves)
-
Add a tablespoon of peanuts to a grinder jar and grind to a fine powder
The powder may look like clumpy due to the peanut oil that's released but that's fine don't worry -
Add in the peanut powder.
The peanut powder blends in with the oil and the eggplant and gives it that smoothness that dips have -
Stir fry this for two minutes so the peanuts don't taste raw
-
Squeeze a good amount of lime juice
-
One highly recommended but optional step is to add two tablespoons of chopped onion and add this after you turn off the heat so that that crunch in the onion remains
-
Garnish with fresh coriander leaves
