Recipe

* single (1 pound) eggplant (aubergine)
* 2-6 green chillies, as desired
* 1 cup fresh ground coconut
* 1 cup chopped fresh coriander (cilantro)
* 2 cups curd (or yoghurt)
* salt to taste

Preparation

1. Roast the eggplant directly over a low flame - don't be afraid to set it right on the gas burner - turning it regularly until the skin becomes blackened and brittle and the flesh soft (about 15-20 minutes). 2. Set aside to cool. 3. Grind the chillies, coconut and coriander together in a food processor to form a paste. 4. Peel the eggplant skin off and mash the flesh to a uniform pulp by hand. 5. Mix in the coconut paste and then curds, along with salt to taste.
