Instructions
Preheat a baking tray in the oven at 200°C.
Prepare your aubergine and red pepper by cutting them into chunky pieces.
Dress the chunks of aubergine in 2 tbsp oil and pinch of salt. Then put on the hot baking tray and place in the oven for 10-15 minutes.
After 10 -15 minutes, the aubergine will have taken on some colour. Dress the pepper in 2 tbsp oil and a pinch of salt then place on the same baking tray for 5 -10 minutes.
The aubergine and pepper will now be ready to add to the curry when needed.
Empty the Ma’s Paretal Curry Pack into a pan and toast off the spices on a low/medium heat. Add creamed coconut to toast it with the spices for 5 minutes. Keep an eye on the coconut as if overdone, it can become bitter.
Add water, passata and sugar. Stir, cover and cook on a medium heat for 10-15 minutes.
At this stage, the oil should be visible on the top of the sauce. Stir then add in your roasted aubergine and pepper to let them warm through.
