This is an easy eggplant potato curry recipe<\/strong> with Indian influences from a dish called Aloo Baingan<\/strong>. My version is made with whole spices roasted in oil, garam masala, some ground coriander, turmeric, smoked paprika, chili and ginger. These flavourful spices are cooked together with onions, garlic, potatoes, eggplants, fresh tomatoes and coconut milk. The result: a super tasty curry. One that also tastes fantastic when reheated and eaten the next day. Yay to leftovers!<\/p>\n\n\n

Preparing eggplant for non-eggplant lovers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In my household there is only one eggplant lover. That\u2019s me. And because I love to cook eggplant, I have become accustomed to finding ways to get others to eat it too. And that usually involved disguising it and not mentioning it. My favourite way to disguising eggplant is by peeling it before I cook it. And depending on the recipe and how the aubergine is cooked, you may not even know it is there. My classic spicy Indian eggplant curry<\/a> recipe does exactly that. This eggplant potato curry recipe (aka \u201cpotato curry<\/a>\u201d — wink, wink), on the other hand doesn\u2019t exactly hide it, but it does manage to get the naysayers (including teenagers!) in my home to eat it without really knowing what it is. I call that success.<\/p>\n\n\n

How to serve this Eggplant Potato Curry<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I am a big fan of serving curries with whole grain rice<\/strong>; either short grain or basmati<\/strong>, but you could also choose something like quinoa<\/strong> instead. Or If you prefer you could skip the extra cooking and serve this Aloo Baingan inspired dish the flatbread like rotis<\/strong>, naan<\/strong> and chapatis<\/strong>. Or if you want to make a complete one-pot meal than feel free to add cooked chickpeas<\/strong> or other cooked beans for extra protein.<\/p>\n\n\n
