Step 1
Heat a large pan and add oil, mustard seeds, garlic, cinnamon sticks and bay leaf. Temper the whole spices along with the garlic on low heat until the spices and garlic release their aroma
Step 2
Next, add the tomato passata, curry powder, turmeric coriander powder, salt and green chillies to the pan. To prevent spluttering, keep the heat low at this stage. Simmer on low heat for 1-2 minutes
Step 3
When the oil begins to separate and appear on the surface of the sauce, add eggplant, potatoes and water. Stir well to coat all the pieces, and simmer on low-medium heat for 15 minutes (covered) or until the eggplant and potatoes are cooked through. Don't forget to check in halfway to be sure the curry isn't sticking to the bottom of your pan. Stir gently so as not to break up the eggplant potato pieces
Step 4
Garnish with lemon juice, garam masala and fresh cilantro
