Recently I stumbled upon an album of some Punjabi food on Facebook. Needless to say I was missing home a lot while going through the album :'(

But I also got inspired to try something I didn’t cook before.

Hence this recipe:

• Heat some oil
• When it’s hot add some mustard seeds and let it pop
• Add a dried red chilly
• Grind some onions, ginger and garlic and add it to this hot oil
• Stir fry for 15 min
• Add some garam masala, chopped tomotoes, coriander powder
• Heat for another 5 min
• Add small aubergines, slit into 4 pieces but still intact with the stem
• add a cup of water
• Cover the pan and heat it slowly for another 15 – 20 min
• Add some salt to taste
• Serve with roti or naan

Voila!
