Introduction

This is a quick and delicious meal with a kick that delivers the sweetness of soft eggplant with a kick of jalapeno (optional). I like to make this in bulk and then freeze it. It's a real staple in my diet. This is a quick and delicious meal with a kick that delivers the sweetness of soft eggplant with a kick of jalapeno (optional).

Ingredients

    2 large eggplants, about 2 pounds total, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch squares
    2 medium onions, peeled and thickly sliced
    2 jalapeno peppers, sliced
    2 cloves of fresh garlic, finely chopped
    1 teaspoon salt
    1 teaspoon black pepper
    1 cup homemade chicken stock (or beef or vegetable stock)
    Juice of 1 lemon


Directions

Over medium heat, coat a wide saute pan with enough chicken stock to cover the bottom. When stock begins to lighly boil, add the eggplant, salt, and pepper.

As the eggplant cooks you will need to add more stock because the eggplant will absorb it. Keep an eye on the pan and add more stock as the eggplant becomes more tender.

After about 10 minutes of cooking, add the rest of the ingredients and continue the process of adding more stock as necessary until the desired consistency is reached (usually a saucy, and not soupy, state).

This dish can serve 4-8 people depending on the usage. The nutritional information is for 4 servings. Enjoy!

    Rather bland. The only real flavour was from the lemon juice. Won't bother again. - 1/24/09

    Incredible!
    I added *red curry powder since it is called Spicy Eggplant Curry* and I like things SPICY
    I also put in 8 ounces of turkey meat and 4 ounces of cherry tomatoes - One for protein the other for color..lol. But it's really good thank you.

    Good
    It was too spicy, so I added one edge of Laughing Cow Lite Herb & Garlic Cheese, one tablespoon of hummus, and a dash of cinnamon. It was very nice curry. - 10/11/08
