"Roasted Eggplant with Tamarind Glaze and Mango Chili Yogurt dipping sauce.
Sometimes the most delicious food isn't photogenic, but today I'm just a cook that had an eggplant, that felt guilty about her decreased consumption of veggies lately, who made this dish with sauces sent by a friend (@essieizspicy - The kindest human and definitely such an inspiration to me in business and life). These eggplant wedges are sweet and sour and the spicy yogurt goes perfectly well. When not trying to make anything complicated, that's when the best dishes emerge."
