    Yum, this is delicious. I only had 1 eggplant, so added the extra weight with tomatoes. Reduced the vinegar by 10ml as of the extra liquid in the tomatoes. Only used about 60g oil.

    I just made this. Why is mine green and does not look like the photo. I have followed the recipe except I roasted my eggplant. Is that why? My eggplant looked quite young and I used baby eggplant.
    It taste delicious though. Just the colour was not right.

    Yum, yum & yum again!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you for posting this amazing recipe. I replaced apple cider vinegar, because that's what I had in the pantry. The recipe wasn't clear as to whether to use fresh or dried garlic & ginger, but I used fresh, because I prefer that.

    ABSELUTELY FANTASTIC.

    I was given some eggplants (big and small) and not knowing what to do with them I googled Egg Plant on the Thermomix site.

    After reading all the comments on this "spiced egg plant pickle" and having all the ingredients in my pantry, I

    made two batches which gave me six 300ml jars of pickle.

    i had a  couple spoons full over which we had with our dinner, and man oh man, this pickle turned out

    really lovely. Just enough zing and heaps of flavour. This is in my favourite file for future gifts and for 

    ourselves to enjoy. Thankyou LJJH for a lovely recipe. tmrc_emoticons.)

    ps..I purchased 12x300ml jars from Red Dot for $14.99 before Xmas. They make a nice gift!

    I made this today. The flavour of this pickle is awesome, my husband loves it! He was eating spoonfuls of it as soon as the bit that didn't fit in my jars was cool enough. I used my friend's home grown eggplants so I'll be giving her a jar. I think the chillis I used were a bit spicy but that's all the better for our family!! Thanks for the recipe.

    Submitted by MackaySharon on 7. March 2015 - 19:41.

    Very tasty,  I added 50g of brown sugar as that was left in the container and it was plenty for us as we are low carb and reducing any sweetness, but for 1 litre of relish that is a good low sugar option for a relish.  I added a little more garam masala, to taste as suggested, I have a feeling this relish will improve even more over a few days in flavour complexity???

    Submitted by LJJH on 16. December 2014 - 13:31.

    Thats ok.

    Generally you have to salt Eggplants (google it) but in this instance you DON'T have to.  So for this recepie dont worry about salting.

    Let me know what you think when your done - I personally love this pickle!

    Cheers,

    This is delicious! I used a big eggplant, without salting, added an extra chilli and used grapeseed oil. I have given several bottles away to welcoming thanks! I didn't serilize the jars but it all seems ok. I will definitely make this again. Great in chicken, cheese and avocado wraps.

  • Yes you can however the end

    Submitted by LJJH on 1. December 2014 - 17:44.

    Yes you can however the end result will be a little less chunky.  This is because the skin to flesh ratio is greater with the small eggplant fingers with the skin part holding together better than the flesh.  It all depends how you like it though.  I prefere my pickle a little more chunky.

    NB You dont have to pre-salt the large eggplants, just cut them into 2cm cubes.

    Let me know how you go.

    Enjoy tmrc_emoticons.)
