Ingredients
- 12 garlic (cloves)
- 2 tomatoes
- 1 eggplant
- 1 ginger root
- 1/4 jalapeno chiles
- 1/4 tumeric powder
- 2 lb spinach
- 1/4 c oil
- 1 ts black mustard seeds
- 1/4 ts paprika
- 1/2 ts coriander (ground)
- 1/2 ts cumin (ground)
Salt Cilantro sprigs, for garnish Heat the oil with half of the mustard seeds in a large saucepan. Add remaining mustard seeds when the cooked seeds begin to pop. Add the garlic and saute until tender. Add the spinach, a small amount at a time, stirring occasionally to keep the spinach from scorching. When the spinach wilts, add the eggplant, ginger, jalapeno chiles, tumeric, paprika, coriander, and cumin. Saute to blend the flavors. Cover, and cook over medium-low heat for 15 minutes. Add the tomatoes and season to taste with salt. Cook, uncovered, 5 minutes longer. Garnish with cilantro.
