This couscous with green curry and vegetables is ideal for lunch or dinner.

Ingredients: (for 4 servings)

• 3-4 eggplants
• 3 medium onions
• 1 garlic
• 500 g canned chickpeas
• 2 cans diced tomatoes (400 g x 2)
• fresh coriander
• 100 g green curry paste (or red curry if you prefer)
• 40 ml olive oil
• salt + pepper
• A spoonful of curry powder
• a cup couscous
• 2 avocados for serving (half for each portion)

Preparation:

Cook the couscous according to the instructions, drain, and set aside.

Wash the eggplant and cut it into cubes (into 4 slices lengthwise, then the slices into strips and the strips into cubes). Clean the onion, cut it in half lengthwise, and then into equal slices. Peel the garlic and cut it into slices. Wash and chop the coriander. Drain the chickpeas from the can, rinse under running water, and drain well.

Add the oil to a large wok, and when it is hot, add the onion, which is sauteed for a few minutes until it starts to soften. Then add the garlic and mix well. Saute together for 1-2 minutes, then add the eggplant, mix well, and let it cook for 2-3 minutes until the eggplant softens.

Add the curry paste and the curry spice and mix well. Let it cook for about a minute, then add the tomatoes, mix well, and after another minute add the chickpeas. Mix everything, add salt and pepper, cover with a lid, and let it cook on medium heat for about 10-15 minutes, stirring periodically.

When it’s done, sprinkle freshly chopped coriander on top and serve with boiled couscous and sliced avocado, and seasoned with a little salt and pepper.
