Air Fry the aubergine for 10-15 minutes or until the aubergine shrinks a little. The eggplant will become tender and the outside becomes golden brown. It's this bitter taste that makes it the perfect ingredient for the famous Sundakkai Vatha Kuzhambu or Kara Kuzhambu. In Tamil Nadu, this berry is not available around the year. One reason why it's common for Sundakkai to be sundried and deep fried as crispies (like the bitter gourd crispies) that can be added to gravies and More Kuzhambu (crafted with tempered butter milk).

The eggplant is part of the Solanaceae family and it can also be called nightshades. The fruit is also known by the same name and this is used as a vegetable when cooking. The nightshade is related to the tomato and potato and it is most commonly found in South Asia. The eggplant grows to between 40-150 cm and the leaves are coarsely lobed with a length of 10-20 cm in length and 5-10 cm in width. Store leftovers in an airtight container.

Turkey berry has been introduced and naturalized This is my favourite pork for braising as it's tender but not too fatty. You can substitute with other cuts of pork. (Note that using pork belly will release a lot of oil in the curry so you may have to skim the oil off the surface.)

In a large frying pan, cook the onion in 2 tablespoons of oil over a low heat. After 10 minutes, add the tomato purée, cinnamon, turmeric, cumin, 1 teaspoon of sea salt, ½ teaspoon of freshly ground pepper, the chopped tomatoes and split peas.

Also known as Purple Rain, Fairy Tale, Shooting Stars and the Sicilian eggplant, this aubergine deserves pride of place in your potager garden and the stripes are still visible after cooking. For outdoor growing, place the container or growing bag in a really warm, sunny spot, such as on a south-facing patio or beside a sunny wall, and cover with fleece for a couple of weeks to help the plants settle in.Put the oil and crushed garlic in a 30cm x 40cm baking dish, then add the tomatoes, salt, pepper, cinnamon and urfa chilli, and stir gently to combine. Please remember to remove the seeds if not they'll be super spicy. Soaking the dried chillies first makes them softer and easier to pound.
