This recipe is SO easy, and on evenings when you have nothing planned, this comes in handy for a quick supper, provided you have the ingredients at hand, of course!
Who says supper has to be a four-course meal each time, there are days when I just whip up a quick sabji and some parathas/rotis, and dinner is served! Save this recipe for such busy nights then!
Spring Onion-Eggplant Curry:
2-3 bunches of Spring Onions- washed, and chopped
2-3 Japanese Eggplants or 1 large regular eggplant- Chopped
1-2 tomatoes- chopped
1-2 garlic cloves- grated
1 inch piece ginger-grated
