Instructions

  • Start by washing and peeling the potatoes. Cut them and the eggplants into evenly-sized cubes.

Notes

For a creamier texture, you can add more coconut milk.
If you prefer your curry spicier, adjust the number of green chilies or red chili powder to your liking.
The curry tastes even better the next day as the flavors meld together.
This Vegan Eggplant and Potato Curry pairs wonderfully with steamed rice or vegan naan bread. A side of fresh green salad or a chilled vegan yogurt drink can complement the warmth of the curry, offering a balanced meal.
