Not at all a Tex-Mex recipe, however, you can make this eggplant dish
as spicy as you please! The more chili pepper you add, the better!


I enjoyed this dish first in a hotel in Bombay. Since then I
experimented with the recipe and came across it again a couple of
years ago when a friend of mine, Misba, who is originally from Bombay,
cooked it for me. So here we go:
