Black-eyed peas have lengthy been considered one of my favourite legumes, adding a welcome earthiness to dishes made out of tangy, zesty or highly spiced flavors that make them a first-rate base in curries. In this nourishing curry, earthiness takes the primary stage with roasted eggplant and Swiss chard.
The eggplant isn't virtually the main celebrity on this dish, but it does add texture and roasting the vegetable brings out a delightful trace of sweetness. Fried eggplant is fun too, but roasting brings out a unique flavor profile that I don't find frying pretty matches ? It turned into so right simply as is, with salt just out of the roasting pan, that it's a surprise any of the eggplant ended up inside the curry. Next time I would possibly try it in a salad to realize the goodness of this beneath appreciated vegetable.
