Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 2 medium eggplant (about 1 pound, 2 ounces each) 2 small onions 2-inch piece of fresh ginger, peeled 4 cloves garlic 2 tablespoon safflower oil 4 tablespoons unsalted butter 1 teaspoon cumin seeds 1/4 teaspoon turmeric 3 small Thai chiles, seeded if desired, and minced (1 teaspoon) or 1/2 serrano chile, minced with seeds 2 medium tomato, coarsely chopped (2 cups) Coarsely chopped cilantro and yogurt, for serving

Directions

Roast eggplant directly on a gas burner or under a broiler, turning occasionally, until charred all over and very soft, about 12 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes. Scoop out flesh and discard skin. You should have about 2 1/2 cups eggplant.

Grind onion, ginger and garlic together in a food processor to form a paste. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat; add butter and melt. Add cumin; when it sizzles, stir in onion paste, and chiles. Cook, stirring frequently, until translucent, about 3 minutes. If onion is sticking to pan, stir in 3 tablespoons water and scrape up browned bits, then stir in tomatoes.

Cook, stirring frequently, until tomatoes are broken down, about 5 to 7 minutes. Add turmeric and stir to combine, then add eggplant, stirring until heated through.
