Eggplant Stew So Great Youll Clean Your Plate Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet with 1 teaspoon olive oil.
• Place eggplant in a large bowl. Drizzle 1/4 cup olive oil over eggplant and toss to coat. Spread eggplant on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven, stirring occasionally, until eggplant is softened and browned, about 25 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large, wide pot over medium-high heat; cook and stir onions and garlic until onions are softened, about 10 minutes. Stir paprika, kosher salt, coriander, fennel seeds, black pepper, cumin, ginger, and turmeric into onion mixture; cook and stir for 1 minute.
• Mix tomatoes, half of the reserved tomato juice, red bell peppers, white wine, and lemon juice into onion mixture; bring to a boil. Reserve the remaining tomato juice to thin the stew if needed.
• Arrange chicken in a single layer in the pot; cover with some of the tomato mixture. Return stew to a boil; reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes. Flip chicken, cover, and simmer until no longer pink in the center, about 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone, should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

• Stir eggplant into the onion mixture; cover and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 6 minutes. Remove cover and stir in tomatoes; simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes. Stir in black beans and 1/2 of the scallions; the stew should be pretty thick at this point because of the tomatoes.
• Add 1 cup beef stock and stir in spice mix. Boil, stirring occasionally, for several minutes. Add up to 1 cup more beef stock as the stew cooks down to get the thickness you desire. About 1 minute before serving, stir in cilantro and remaining scallions to add flavor throughout.

Steps:

• First peel your eggplant and slice it into large but not to thick of pieces. Fill a large bowl with water and about 1/4 a cup of salt. Next add your eggplant in the bowl and place something heavy over the bowl to keep your eggplant submerged under. This will help take the bitter taste out of it before you fry it. Let sit for about 20 mins then rinse off your pieces.
• Chop onion into small pieces and fry your onion in olive oil on medium until it becomes soft and translucent. Add your meat with the onion and fry on medium, just browning it.
• Once you've browned your meat add your tumeric, garlic, cinnamon,lemon juice, tomato paste, salt, pepper, and yellow split peas. Add about 2 or 3 cups of water and stir well. Your water will evaporate some so just keep checking to see if its looking low.
• Bring your pot to a boil and once its boiling reduce heat to a medium low. I usually let it cook for a few hours on a low heat and I know when it's done because the meat is tender and just breaks apart with your fork. Ill say to let it cook for 2 1/2 to 3 hours on low. Just use your judgement.
• In a frying pan add a little olive oil, enough to coat the pan. Take out your eggplant and rinse the salt off, we will re-salt it while its frying.
• Over a medium- high heat fry your eggplant pieces and salt them and pepper them if you like. Once they're finished frying and are soft, place them on a paper towel so you drain some of that olive oil from them. Then place them in the pot with your khoresht.
• Slice your tomatoes in half and place them in your stew, let the tomatoes and eggplant cook an extra 20 mins once you put them in the stew so the flavors can soak inches.
• Once finished, pour your yummy khoresht e bademjan over some steamed basmati rice and serve!

Steps:

• Add remaining ingredients and cook, covered, on medium-low heat for 5 minutes, stirring often. Vegetables should be tender, but not mushy.

Steps:

• Remove any skin from the fish fillets and cut the fillets into 1-inch pieces; set aside.
• In a Dutch oven cook the onion and green pepper in hot cooking oil until the onion is tender but not brown. Once the onion is translucent, add the garlic and jalapeno pepper. Stir in undrained tomatoes, eggplant, tomato sauce, water, salt, ground red pepper, and creole seasoning. Bring to a boil; reduce heat. Cover and simmer about 10 minutes or until the eggplant is tender.
• Stir in okra and fish pieces. Cover and cook 10 to 15 minutes longer or until the okra is tender and the fish flakes easily when tested with a fork; stir occasionally while cooking.
• Ladle the stew into soup bowls. Spoon some hot cooked basmati rice atop each serving.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large pan. cook the onions until soft and golden. Add the eggplant and continue cooking.
• Add the potatoes. Cook on high heat for several minutes until the eggplant starts to soften, lose volume and shrink in size. Keep stirring to ensure even cooking.
• Add the crushed garlic to the pan along with curry powder, cayenne pepper and salt. Stir all ingredients thoroughly.
• Then add the can of tomatoes, tomatoe paste and water. Mix well.
• Turn down the heat and simer the juices to let the full flavour come out, while stirring occasionally. After about 20 minutes the mixturewill have dried out indicating it is almost ready. Using a fork, prod the potatoes and when they are very soft the dish is ready. If they are not add just the tiniest amount of water.
• Serve with rice.
