Recipe: Spicy Maldivian Eggplant Delight

Ingredients:

  • 2 medium-sized eggplants, cut into bite-sized cubes
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1-inch piece of ginger, grated
  • 2 ripe tomatoes, chopped
  • 1 green chili, finely chopped (adjust to your spice preference)
  • 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin powder
  • 1 teaspoon coriander powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder (adjust to your spice preference)
  • Salt to taste
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • Fresh coriander leaves for garnish

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Eggplant: Place the eggplant cubes in a bowl of salted water for about 15 minutes. Rinse and drain to remove any bitterness. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.

  2. Heat the Oil: In a pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat.

  3. Add Aromatic Delights: Add the chopped onion and cook until it turns translucent. Then, add the minced garlic, grated ginger, and chopped green chili. Sauté for a couple of minutes until fragrant.

  4. Spice It Up: Add the turmeric, cumin, coriander, and chili powder. Stir well to create a fragrant spice paste.

  5. Tomato Tango: Throw in the chopped tomatoes and cook until they start breaking down and creating a thick, aromatic sauce.

  6. Eggplant Embrace: Now, it's time to introduce the eggplant. Add the drained eggplant cubes to the pan and gently mix them with the tomato and spice mixture.

  7. Simmer and Stir: Cover the pan and let the eggplant cook on low heat. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking. The eggplant should become soft and tender.

  8. Season to Taste: Season your creation with salt and adjust the spices according to your desired level of spiciness.

  9. Finishing Touch: Once the eggplant is tender, and the sauce is rich and aromatic, remove it from the heat. Garnish with fresh coriander leaves.
