recipe

• Step 1
  Preheat the oven to 200°C. Wash the eggplant. Then cut it in half lengthwise.

  Mix 2 tbsp of olive oil (per person) with the turmeric.
• Step 4
  Place the eggplant halves on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Pour half of the turmeric oil over the eggplant.
• Step 5
  Season with salt & pepper. Bake for 15 min at 200°C.
• Step 6
  In the meantime, rinse & drain the chickpeas. Then mix them in a bowl with the rest of the turmeric oil. Season with salt & pepper.
• Step 7
  After 15 min of cooking, add the turmeric chickpeas to the baking tray. Continue cooking for 15 min.
• Step 8
  Serve the eggplant & chickpeas with dollops of coconut yogurt. Garnish with chopped cilantro (optional). Enjoy!
