Directions

  1. Cut eggplant in half lengthwise, and lengthwise again into 1 inch strips.
  2. Cut each strip into 1 1/2 inch lengths.
  3. In large, non-reactive saucepan, heat the oil. Add in onion, and stir over medium heat till softened, 3-4 min. Add in carrot, beans, garlic, salt pepper and allspice. Cover and simmer, stirring occasionally in a folding
  4. motion, for 10 min.
  5. Add in tomatoes and sufficient water to bring liquid to half the depth of the solids. Cover and continue cooking for 20 min.
  6. Stir in the mint, cover and cook till eggplant is very tender, about 10 min more.
  7. Serve warm, room temperature , or possibly cool. Stir in cilantro just before serving.

  9. It calls for 1/2 c. extra virgin olive oil to cook/saute/fry, but we all know how to drastically reduce which.
