salt, turmeric, and cayenne. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 8 to 10
minutes, or until the onion is translucent. Add eggplant and salt. Cook,
stirring from the bottom regularly, for 15 to 20 minutes-until the eggplant
is soft. You might need to add a little water if the mixture is too dry.

and bright green. Serve the curry over rice, topped with peas and freshly
