Sri Lankan vambotu pahi morjuwa (tangy and spicy eggplant curry)

Sri Lankan vambotu pahi morjuwa (tangy and spicy eggplant curry)

    1 big eggplant, 1 tsp turmeric powder, 1 onion, 1 tbsp fresh ginger, 3 garlic cloves, 1 tsp mustard seeds, 2 tbsp curry powder, 1 tbsp chili powder, ½ cup non dairy plain yogourt, 1 can (400ml) coconut milk, ¼ cup tomato puree, 2 cm tamarind paste, 1 can (540ml) chickpeas, salt
    25-30 minutes   Minutes

    This eggplant curry is tangy, rich, a bit spicy, easy to prepare, and a eggplant lovers dream.

    This  eggplant curry is a popular dish in Sri Lankan celebrations, it is often served with other currys accompanied with rice or Indian breads. It is not typically made with chickpeas, but I added them for a source of protein, so it could be eaten as a meal. They also usually fry the eggplant, but I prefer grilling mine; it is healthier.
