1 Tbs curry powder
1 tsp ground cumin
1 cup chopped onion

Curried
Eggplant Strudel Method
Toss the eggplant with the
salt and set aside for 30 minutes. Wrap in a towel and squeeze
out any excess moisture then set aside. In a skillet saute
the onion in the olive oil over medium heat until soft, about
2 minutes then add the garlic, curry powder, cumin and chili
powder and cook 2 more minutes. Add the reserved eggplant,
tomatoes and sugar. Mix the saffron into the vinegar and add
to mixture. Simmer for 15 minutes until the eggplant is soft.
Add a bit of water if the mixture should become too dry. Add
the peanuts and cool completely. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
Place a sheet of phyllo on a clean work surface and drizzle
lightly with clarified butter.
Layer five more sheets drizzling a bit more butter on top
of each layer. Brush the top layer with butter. Place a quarter
of the filling over the sheets mounding more of it along one
of the longer sides. Roll the sheets up jelly roll style starting
at the edge with the mounded filling. Place seam side down
on a greased sheet pan and brush with more clarified butter.
Make three more strudels using the rest of the phyllo and
the remaining filling and butter. On sheet pans bake in the
preheated oven until golden brown, about 30 minutes moving
the pans front to back and top to bottom halfway through.
Let the Curried Eggplant Strudel rest for 10 minutes before
serving. Cut the strudel in 1inch thick slices and top with
yogurt.
Enjoy your freshly made Curried
Eggplant Strudel!
