For some reason Sundays are rarely peaceful here, probably because we so want them to be. This Sunday was different, relaxing, lazy, even productive. Quick delicious lunch, afternoon sewing, then bright cheerful colors in the living room. Laundry folded, evening walk, kids in bed *on time*. Can it get any better? Only if it happens more often.
Eggplant curry (adapted and, yes, improved from this month's Real Simple)
1 medium onion chopped
olive or coconut oil
1 eggplant, cubed
1 T curry powder
1 T ground coriander
1/2 tsp turmeric
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1 can chickpeas
4 medium tomatoes
1 can tomato sauce
salt/pepper to taste
1/2 c water
Sautee onion for a few minutes, add eggplant and spices, more oil if needed. Cook for 7-10 minutes, stirring often. Add chopped tomatoes, drained chickpeas, tomato sauce and water if needed. Cook for 3-5 more minutes. Serve over rice, buckwheat, or quinoa.

The eggplant curry looks yummy, one quick question, The can of tomato sauce, is that just like a can of pureed tomatoes? Just trying to buy the right thing here in the UK, I can get passata/seived tomatoes easily. Alternatively, do you think it would work using a tin of tomatoes to replace it and the fresh tomatoes?
Hi Olya - Thanks for the great suggestions you made for improving my curry disaster. Yours looks delish!
