Eggplant Stew Recipe


Eggplant Stew Recipe
This is my adaptation of a recipe I found in a book called Mediterranean: A Taste of the Sun. It's an easy way to cook eggplant and a good vegetarian choice.

Ingredients
  • 1 large eggplant, peeled & cubed
  • 1 can chick-peas, drained
  • 4 Tbs olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • ½ tsp ground cumin
  • ½ tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp ground coriander
  • 2 cans petite diced tomatoes
  • Salt and pepper

Directions
  1. Place the eggplant in a colander and sprinkle with salt. Set the colander in a bowl and leave for 30 minutes to allow the bitter juices to escape. Rinse with cold water and drain well.
  2. Heat the oil in a large pan or dutch oven. Add the garlic and onion and cook gently until soft.
  3. Add the spices and cook, stirring for a few seconds.
  4. Add the eggplant and stir to coat with the spices and onion. Cook for 5 minutes.
  5. Add tomatoes with juice and chick-peas and season with salt and pepper. Cover and simmer for 20 minutes.
  6. Serve over basmati rice or couscous.
