EGGPLANT CURRY (17 of 17)

 

First attempt at making Eggplant Curry! I  have since tweaked the recipe a little and now toss half of the eggplant into the food processor along with the onions and jalapeño and process until smooth. And add coconut milk. You might want to try some modifications to this recipe too.
