Rajasthani Aloo Baingan (Potato and Eggplant)

I have never met an eggplant I didn't love! Eggplant is one of my favorite vegetables. The nice thing is you can make it so many ways. This recipe is really easy and turns out a delicious dish that tastes great when served with hot Chapatis.

I just made this and although it did not look much like your photo (I made it from a printed recipe so didn't have your photo to compare) it tastes and looks fabulous! I interpreted "stripes" as strips so the shapes were different. I guessed that you'd use one onion since that ingredient was not defined. I love that the vegetables keep some shape and that only 1 T of oil is used. I used olive oil and the taste came through sometimes, which was delicious. Definitely a keeper which I will serve to guests. Thank you for writing out all those instructions.
