Eggplants in a North-South Sauce Recipe
The cookbook author Madhur Jaffrey calls this "one of our most beloved family dishes, very much in the Hyderabadi style, where North Indian and South Indian seasonings are combined." Over the years, she has simplified the recipe "You can use the long, tender Japanese eggplants or the purple 'baby' Italian eggplants," she says, "or even the striated purple and white ones that are about the same size as the baby Italian ones Once cut, what you are aiming for are 1-inch chunks with as much skin on them as possible so they do not fall apart." Serve hot with rice and dal, or cold as a salad.
