Take heed to yourselves, because the tempter will more ply you with his temptations than other men. If you will be the leaders against the prince of darkness, he will spare you no further than God restraints him. He bears the greatest malice to those that are engaged to do him the greatest mischief. As he hates Christ more than any of us, because He is the General of the field, the Captain of our salvation, and does more than all the world besides against his kingdom; so does he hate the leaders under Him, more than the common soldiers: he knows what a rout he may make among them, if the leaders fall before their eyes.

INGREDIENTS

2	lg	Eggplants, unpeeled, diced
2	lg	Tomatoes, diced
2	lg	Onions, finely chopped
2	tb	Oil (or clarified butter)
2	ts	Salt
1	ts	Black pepper

INSTRUCTIONS

In a large frying pan, saute the onion in the oil until it is translucent.
Add the spices and stir for 1 minute. Add the eggplant and tomato, stir
well and cover. Reduce heat and simmer until vegetables are mushy (about
1/2    hour).
Remove the lid and continue cooking until most of the liquid evaporates
(about 15 minutes). The finished dish should be thick enough that you could
use it as a dip.
  NOTES:
*  Indian eggplant, onion and tomato casserole -- This is an Indian dish,
called Baigan Bartha in Hindi.  We make it a lot and call it "Bangin'
Bart." It is eggplant, onions and tomatoes, but not in the usual way.
In this recipe, the vegetables are cooked to mush, with only a small amount
of tomato, just enough to flavor it. Yield: serves 6-8.
*  I don't make this with any spices but salt and pepper. The genuine
Indian version of the recipe adds various Indian spices; try about 1 t of
fresh ginger, about 1/2 t of turmeric, about 1/2 t of cayenne, and about 1
t of garam masala for a more authentic Indian flavor.
: Difficulty:  easy.
: Time:  15 minutes preparation, 45 minutes cooking.
: Precision:  no need to measure.
