Time 40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 onion, finely chopped
1 carrot, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, chopped
1 (14.5 ounce) can whole peeled tomatoes
½ teaspoon white sugar
salt and ground black pepper to taste
½ cup vegetable oil for frying
1 eggplant, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons pitted Kalamata olives, sliced

Steps:

  • Heat olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook and stir onion, carrot, and garlic until onion is golden, about 5 minutes. Add tomatoes, sugar, salt, and pepper. Bring to a simmer; turn heat down to low. Continue simmering, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat vegetable oil in a separate pan over high heat. Fry eggplant slices in the hot oil until lightly browned, about 2 minutes per side. Drain eggplant slices on paper towels.
  • Mash the tomatoes in the saucepan using a fork for a less chunky texture. Remove from heat. Add eggplant and olives; stir gently to incorporate.

I'm allergic to cashews. Is there a substitute I can use?

This sauce is a great way to use up leftover eggplant. It's also a good source of vegetables for picky eaters.

I found this sauce to be a bit bland. I had to add a lot of salt and pepper to taste.

This sauce is a bit too spicy for my taste, but I was able to tone it down by adding a little extra cashew cream.

I love the smoky flavor of the roasted eggplant in this sauce. It pairs perfectly with the sweet tomatoes and creamy cashew sauce.
