Method

  1. Heat oil in a heavy-based saucepan, add the onions and garlic and cook until they begin to colour. Add the chillies, coriander and cumin seeds. When the seeds give off a nutty aroma, toss in the whole aubergines, coating them in the onion and spices.
  2. Tip in tomatoes and sugar, cover and gently cook for 40 mins, until aubergines are tender.
  3. Season sauce and toss in half the mint and coriander. Cover and simmer for 2 mins. Sprinkle over remaining herbs and serve with couscous and yogurt.

    Really lovely - I used baby aubergines, but put some slits in them half way through cooking to speed it up a little bit (maybe my baby aubergines were a bit bigger than normal baby ones!?). Did away with the couscous and yoghurt, and served mine with some spinach and cooked quinoa stirred through.
