Tropical Fusion: Eggplant Pineapple Curry

Today’s Unique Creation: Spiced Eggplant and Pineapple Curry

Hello, fellow food enthusiasts! Today, I am excited to share with you a recipe that was inspired by a recent trip to a tropical island. The combination of spiced eggplant and sweet pineapple creates a deliciously unique curry that is perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients:

• 1 medium eggplant (300g), diced
• 1 cup pineapple chunks (150g)
• 1 onion, chopped
• 2 cloves of garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
• 2 tablespoons curry powder
• 1 can (400ml) coconut milk
• 1 cup vegetable broth (240ml)
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• Salt and pepper to taste

Kitchen Tools:

• knife
• cutting board
• saucepan
• wooden spoon

To start, heat olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until translucent, then add in the minced garlic and grated ginger. Cook for another minute until fragrant.

Next, stir in the diced eggplant and pineapple chunks, allowing them to cook for a few minutes until slightly softened. Add the curry powder, salt, and pepper, stirring well to coat the vegetables.

Pour in the coconut milk and vegetable broth, bringing the mixture to a simmer. Let it cook for about 20 minutes, or until the eggplant is tender and the flavors have melded together.

Once the curry has thickened to your desired consistency, taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Serve hot over steamed rice or with naan bread for a delightful meal that is sure to impress.

The approximate total weight of the cooked dish is 850g, with 4 servings in total. Each serving weighs around 210g, with an estimated calorie count of 250 per serving.

One clever tip to make this dish even more delicious is to add a squeeze of fresh lime juice before serving. The acidity will balance out the richness of the coconut milk and elevate the flavors of the curry.

I encourage you to give this Spiced Eggplant and Pineapple Curry a try and feel free to experiment with your own additions or substitutions. Enjoy!
