This beautiful curry comes from the ridiculously romantic Lake Palace in Udaipur and is a thick, sweet and sour mess of diced, roast eggplant, cooked with a reduced tomato sauce with ginger, garlic, turmeric, coriander, fennel and nigella seeds and a hint of cayenne pepper. It's completely addictive and almost guaranteed to turn around non-eggplant-eaters.
Eggplant, ginger, garlic, rice bran oil, salt, fennel seeds, nigella seeds, tomatoes, coriander, turmeric, cayenne pepper.
