    Fantastic! I love the peanut-taste in the soup. Consistency is between a stew and soup. The eggplant and okra are really, really juicy in this dish - could be pulled out and served over rice as a curry. I added about a half cup of water to get a little more liquid into the sauce.

      The eggplant and okra were perfectly tender and so delicious. I really enjoyed the explosive flavors in this dish.

        Yeah, that makes sense, Chris. BTW, the soup is even better the next day - had some for breakfast!

          Thanks to Mihir for the point about more water -- I forgot to mention that the simmer should be covered, and that I also added water as needed to keep a smoother overall consistency. I've edited the recipe to reflect that.

          Glad people are liking the soup!
