Directions
Cut eggplant into a large dice, approx. 1-2 inch thick. Add to a glass container with 1 cup plant- based milk, cover and soak overnight. This step allows the bitterness to be extracted from the eggplant.
Heat a large nonstick pot with oil, add onion garlic and ginger and cook until translucent. (4-5 minutes.)
Follow with spices (curry, turmeric, cumin, cloves, cinnamon, and pepper). Stir to combine and sauté for 1 minute for spices to cook.
Next, start to add your vegetable stock in small batches allowing the spices to cook more as you go.
Add all vegetables, cauliflower, butternut, tomatoes and eggplant and season with salt.
Bring stock and vegetables to a gentle boil, reduce to low heat, cover and simmer until cauliflower florets are softened. About 20mins.
Add coconut milk last and simmer for another 5 minutes on low heat.
Lastly, stir in fresh chopped cilantro (optional) and drizzle with fresh lime juice, remove the curry from heat.
Your delicious vegan curry is ready to serve with rice or cauliflower rice and fresh cilantro.
