Some much loved vegetables in Ghana are known locally as garden eggs. These are usually white to yellow and look just like, you guessed it… eggs! A popular way of preparing a dish with the egg plants as the main ingredient is to make a stew consisting of egg plants, okra, meat and the ever smoking palm oil. I decided to make a vegetarian version using just aubergines… painfully simple yet lusciously decadent.
Recipe
2 tbsp each of palm oil and olive oil 1 red onion 2 cloves of garlic 1 inch of fresh ginger 3 fresh tomatoes 2 aubergines 300 mls vegetable stock
