Sunday Cooking

I had a request in the comments from yesterday’s post for Indian recipes.  I don’t cook much Indian food, so I’m not much help.  However, my mother-in-law recently gave me a recipe for yummy eggplant.  She doesn’t cook from a cookbook, doesn’t measure, so you’ll have to just figure it out.  It’s not hard, and very yummy.

Bolange*

1 globe eggplant, whole
2 or 3 cloves garlic, sliced
2 or 3 tomatoes, whole
1/2 small onion
salt and pepper
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Poke holes in the eggplant, insert garlic slices into holes.
Place eggplant and tomatoes on a baking sheet.
Roast in 350 degree oven until eggplant gets soft and collapses.

Remove from oven, cool enough to handle.  Scoop meat from eggplant.  Smash with tomato, onion, salt and pepper.

Very yummy.  A second favorite to the curried pumpkin.  We like to have lamb curry, bolange, pumpkin, rice and Roti (or Nan).

Enjoy!

*(forgive the spelling…that’s what it sounds like when Ma says it)
