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.
