Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 large Eggplant
3 Garlic cloves, sliced or chopped
4 tablespoons Onion, chopped
1½ cup Tomatoes (fresh), ripe
1 teaspoon Sugar
1 teaspoon Salt
2 teaspoons Red hot chili peppers, fresh

Directions

Cut the eggplant into long quarter-round strips. Bake them at 400 200 for 20-25 minutes, or until they are soft but not mushy.

Meanwhile, in a bowl, mix the onion, garlic, tomatoes, salt, sugar, peppers and water and mash with a wooden spoon until it forms a coarse paste.

Fry the tomato paste in the oil until the liquid is reduced (about 10 minutes). Pour the sauce over the eggplant and serve immediately NOTES:
