Make this Aubergine Curry recipe for a delicious midweek meal! It’s delicious, comforting, mildly spiced that your whole family will love. Serve over steamed basmati rice, homemade naan bread, and a wedge of fresh lime. Plus it’s super easy to make!

I was not fond of Aubergine ( Eggplant ) for many years until I tasted this Aubergine mash ( also known as Baingan Bharta ). The smokey flavors in the dish actually made me fall in love with Aubergine.

To make this easy creamy Vegetarian curry, the Aubergine and Mushrooms get roasted, until the aubergine is creamy on the inside and roasted on the outside. This step not only adds lots of flavors but also cuts down the cooking time to a large extent. Sometimes I also like to make these Roasted Aubergine Boats and serve them with tahini sauce.

The aubergine and mushroom curry with lentils, and potatoes are creamy, coconutty, mildly spiced, and soo flavorsome. I would happily enjoy this curry by itself. It also perfect for dipping fresh homemade flatbread or poppadoms too.

Onion – My preference is white onion in this curry. Red onion can be a little overpowering in flavor and can also change the color of the curry.

Ginger – Garlic – Ginger garlic paste is convenient to use. You can also use fresh ginger root and garlic pods too.

Spice Powders – I love the addition of Instant Homemade Garam masala, Coriander powder, Cumin Powder, Turmeric powder, and Chilli powder and it adds the perfect North Indian flavor to this nourishing curry.

Brown lentils are nourishing and add great texture to this curry. Drain the can of lentils and add it at a later stage of cooking

First, we are going to roast the aubergine and mushrooms in 2 separate baking trays. Dice the aubergine into 2-inch chunks and half/ quarter the mushrooms depending upon the size.

Toss in oil, salt, and pepper and arrange in baking sheets separately. Bake for about 20-25 minutes checking in between. Mushrooms cook slighly quicker, so pick them out earlier.

The aubergine is ready, when its crisp and brown on the edges and soft on the inside. Pick them out of the oven and set them aside. This can take between 20 -25 minutes, as each ovens will vary.

In a sauce pan or frying pan, Add the onions, ginger garlic, turmeric to the heated oil and cook for 4-5 mins, until soft and translucent.

Addthe spice powders – cumin, coriander, chilli and garam masala. If you don’t have garam masala, you can add medium curry powder too.

Now add the coconut milk, veg stock, and potatoes. Bring the curry to a boil, cover with a lid and simmer for 12-15 mins. Check with a fork if the potatoes are cooked through.

When the aubergine is cooked, add this too along with lentils and bring it back to the boil, another 2-3 minutes. The sauce will have a semi thick consistency. If you like it liquidy, add in a splash of water.

Now add the roasted mushrooms. Taste and season with salt and pepper and serve! I like to add lots of fresh coriander and a sprinkle of chilli flakes too.

Under the new law they must now donate unsold food to charities and food banks or face fines.

The Italian government recently announced that it is also planning legislation on supermarkets and food waste, although rather than impose fines the proposed law would provide tax incentives to food outlets that donate unsold food to charities.

It would be good to see similar legislation introduced in the UK and other countries, although even here we are beginning to see some small but significant initiatives.

The supermarket chain Asda, for example,  has had some success with its “wonky veg” boxes initiative, whilst Waitrose has found customers more than happy to buy storm-damaged apples and misshapen tomatoes.

Whilst supermarkets are absolutely central to the problem of food waste, only a small proportion of food waste created by supermarkets is actually generated within the supermarkets themselves.

Far more food is wasted between the supplier and the supermarket, where the latter’s ridiculously strict cosmetic standards mean that perfectly healthy food is regularly thrown away or left unpicked.

As a member of the Worcestershire Gleaning Network I have witnessed personally the sheer scale of waste these exacting standards produce. A visit to a fruit farm last year yielded several tonnes of beautiful, tasty apples that we were able to deliver to food banks, homeless shelters and other charities. These apples would otherwise not have been picked, simply because they had minor blemishes or were slightly the wrong colour, size or shape.

However, the worst offending area of supermarket-generated food waste is the one where we consumers have most control – ourselves. Around 40% of all supermarket food waste is food that we buy but then throw away at home.

Supermarkets make their money by shifting a lot of products in as short a space of time as possible. That is their business model, and they have long perfected the art of encouraging their customers to over-purchase – bombarding us with special offers, such as “buy three for the price of two” as we push our trolleys up and down the aisles. The end result is that we often buy and, eventually throw away, food we don’t really need.

Warm Eggplant, Mushroom And Kale Salad

Again, there are some positive developments in this area too. One UK supermarket chain, Tesco, recently responded to criticisms from consumer groups by ceasing its “buy one get one free” offers on bags of salad leaves. This was after the company’s own research had confirmed that a huge proportion of the additional “free” salad bags were not eaten by customers and eventually simply thrown out.

By far the biggest area of potential change, however, is completely within our powers: a change to our shopping habits, for example:

– shopping regularly, for a few days at a time, instead of doing a single large weekly shop, which is more likely to lead to purchases being thrown away at the end of the week;

– using a bit of common sense when interpreting “use by” and “sell by” dates. Forget the date: if it looks OK and smells OK then it’s OK (unless it’s a McDonald’s burger, such as this one  which seven years on still bears a  disturbingly close resemblance to how it must have looked on the day it was purchased);

This is a dish with a distinctive rich, spicy hot flavour. It’s a wonderfully flavoured, comforting bowl of goodness on a cold evening.

, an essential element of much of Szechuan cooking. It’s key here in laying the incredible base flavours for this truly lovely dish, which is probably my favourite of all the recipes I’ve created to date.
