Here are the transcribed directions in case you need them in writing. It helps me. We like spicy, but this was really spicy, so I cut the cayenne in half, and our 1" cubes of eggplant also needed more time to cook (ours was a little too chewy) . It was definitely yummy. Will repeat. Wish there was a place to post our photos of this dish. We served it with steamed asparagus and red quinoa & brown rice with garlic. Cut eggplant (skin on) into ~ 1” cubes & soak in salted water for ~ 15 min.
To a heated pan, add 2 T. cooking oil. To this add onion and potatoes. 1st fry on high heat until potatoes and onions start to brown ~ 5 min. Add garlic and continue to cook one minute. Add chop tomatoes. Drain & dry eggplant and add to the pan. Sprinkle 1 t. salt, turmeric powder, cayenne. Give a gentle mix and let cook on high for 5-7 min., continuing to stir. Cover and cook 12 min. on med. – med. high heat. Check to be sure the potatoes & eggplant are done. Eggplant will have released a lot of liquid so turn up the heat to high and continue to cook uncovered for ~ 2-3 min to get rid of the water. Taste for salt; add if needed. Add cilantro leaves. Add a little drizzle of olive oil and give it a good mix. Can be served with rice.
Looks yummy. Do wish you would pls add the directions allow with the ingredient list.
