Before you start

Please wash your hands and rinse all fresh fruits and vegetables prior to cooking.

Instructions

1 Roast eggplant

Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan. Peel and chop the eggplant into bite-sized pieces. Place them onto a baking tray. Drizzle with oil and season with a pinch of salt. Roast for 15-25 min or until starting to soften. Once the eggplants are soft, mash them on the baking tray.

2 Prep

Meanwhile, roughly chop the tomatoes. Peel and finely chop the garlic and onion. Finely chop the fresh coriander (stalks included).

3 Cook rice

Rinse the basmati rice. Add the rice, a pinch of salt and the measured water to a pan with a lid and bring to a boil over a high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook for 10-12 min or until the water is absorbed and the rice is cooked. Once cooked, remove the pan from heat and keep covered until serving.

4 Stew

Meanwhile, heat a non-stick pan over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Once hot, add the nigella seeds, onions, garlic and ginger paste. Fry for 3 min. Add the tomatoes, chilli powder (spicy!), coriander powder, turmeric and salt. Cover and cook for 7 min or until the tomatoes soften. Add the eggplants. Cover and cook for 4 min further.

5 Prep salad

Meanwhile, peel the carrot then continue peeling it until you are left with a pile of carrot ribbons. Quarter the radish. Slice the lemon and juice half of it into a bowl. Add the coconut sugar, a pinch of salt and the olive oil. Whisk. This is your dressing.

6 Serve

Toss the baby spinach, carrot ribbons and red radish in the dressing. Warm the chapatis in a microwave for 30 sec. Divide the mashed eggplants and rice among bowls and serve the salad and chapatis on the side. Top the eggplant stew with the chopped coriander.
