- 1. Soak the tamarind in 1/2 c. warm water for at least 30 min.
- 2. If using baby eggplant, make 2 incisions, like a cross, halfway up each eggplant. Cut off the stems. Soak in water with a healthy pinch of salt for 15 min, to reduce the natural bitterness. If using large eggplant, peel if you like and cut into thick slices.
- 3. On a heated griddle toast the coconut for 5-6 min, then add in the chiles and coriander seeds and toast for 2-3 min. Add in the cumin and toast for 1 minute. Put into a small grinder and grind to a paste, adding a little water.
- 4. Heat the oil in a cooking pot and add in the mustard seeds. When they crackle, add in the garlic, ginger and curry leaves, then the onions and turmeric.
- After 25 min add in the spice paste and saute/fry for a further 10-15 min, adding a little water if the spices stick.
- 5. Add in 2 c. water, stir well, add in salt to taste (about 1 1/4 tsp.) and the eggplants and cover with the lid. After 15 min, add in the tamarind water
- (after squeezing the tamarind and straining it). Cook till the eggplants are tender, then remove from the heat and sprinkle with cilantro leaves when serving.
