Spicy Eggplant and Green Bean Curry image

A recipe I love based on one from the March 2007 issue of Bon Appetit magazine, in the Readers' Quick Recipes section, attributed to Nick Vidargas of Sacramento, California. The intro states, "This fresh and sophisticated dish would be a delicious vegetarian entree for two -- just add rice. Look for curry paste and coconut milk in the Asian foods section of the supermarket."

This curry is a little spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I would recommend using less chili pepper if you don't like spicy food.
