Serves/Makes: 4
Ready in: 1-2 hrs

  • 2 medium eggplants
  • 4 cups potatoes, cubed
  • 8 ounces paneer or soy cheese
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2 cups chopped onions
  • 2 teaspoons ground cumin seeds
  • 1 tablespoon ground coriander seeds
  • 1 teaspoon turmeric
  • 1/2 teaspoon hot red pepper
  • chopped red or green cayenne to taste
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1 tablespoon minced ginger
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 medium carrots, diced
  • 1 large green bell pepper, diced
  • 1 cup green peas
  • 1 tomato, diced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (don\'t use bottled)
  • sesame seeds

Leaving stems on, slice eggplants in half lengthwise and place cut side down in pan. Cover and bake at 375 degrees F for 30 to 40 minutes until tender.

While eggplant is baking, boil potatoes until tender and drain. Mash with partially melted cheese in a large bowl.

Saute onions and dried spices in oil for 1 minute. Add garlic and ginger and saute until onion is translucent. Add carrots and cook 5 minutes.

Add peppers and peas and cook until just tender. Stir in tomatoes and lemon juice. Combine sauteed vegetables and potato mixture.

Scoop out and mash/mince eggplant pulp (it should still be a bit chunky, not a puree) and mix with filling mixture. Mound a quarter of filling into each half. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and bake for 15 minutes at 375 degrees F, uncovered.
