Roasted Aubergine and Chickpea Curry
with Yoghurt and Garlic Naan Bread
Onion marmalade in a curry?! Well that, is the secret ingredient to this delicious recipe. We're all about thinking outside the box (!), so when Ellie, our menu planner said she'd like the chefs to create a recipe using our trackelments onion marmalade, Mimi went rogue and decided aubergine curry it was. After some doubt from Andre and Liz, they tasted it and agreed the onion marmalade was the glue that brought the whole thing together!

Due to the war in Ukraine, it has been necessary to substitute sunflower oil with rapeseed oil in some products without a label change. The FSA have advised that allergic reactions to rapeseed oil are rare.

Instructions
Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.
Meanwhile, trim the aubergine, then halve lengthways. Chop each half into four long strips, then chop widthways into thirds.
Pop the aubergine onto a baking tray. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer.
When the oven is hot, roast on the top shelf until soft and golden, 25-30 mins. Turn halfway through.
Meanwhile, peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
Drain and rinse the chickpeas in a sieve (see ingredients for amount).
When the aubergine is about halfway through cooking, heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium high heat.
Once hot, add half the garlic, the rogan josh curry paste and the North Indian style spice mix. Fry until fragrant, 1 min.
Stir in the passata, veg stock paste and water for the sauce (see pantry for amount).
Stir through the chickpeas, then simmer until the sauce has thickened, 10-15 mins.
Meanwhile, pop the naans on a baking tray.
Mix the olive oil for the garlic bread (see pantry for amount) and remaining garlic in a bowl, then drizzle over the naans.
When the aubergine has almost finished roasting, pop the garlic naans into the oven to warm through, 2-3 mins.
Once the aubergine is roasted, stir it through the curry along with the mango chutney, then taste and add salt and pepper if needed.
Mix the butter through the sauce (see pantry for amount) until melted.
Spoon your aubergine curry into bowls and top with a dollop of yoghurt.
Serve with the garlic naan alongside.
Enjoy!
