when i saw this Dish it Out Event Announcement-Eggplant & Tomatoes i remembered this gravy that my mother-in-law prepares. One of the yummy dish that goes very well with rice.
Eggplant with peanuts and sesame seeds is a classic combination. Tomatoes adds enough tangibleness that makes this finger licking good. For this i got small green eggplants from thai market purple ones can also be used.
