Eggplant thai curry
I was in the mood for a vegetarian curry and wanted to use sweet potato and eggplant. Found these cute mini eggplants in my store and grabbed a sweet potato without knowing it had white flesh instead of orange. In fact I did not know there were more than one type of sweet potato. The white one is not as sweet and has a drier consistency than the orange one, but it taste quite sweet and was great in this curry.

Tip;
- I used kale but feel free to use spinach instead
- I wish I had some cilantro to spinkle on top
- If you don`t like eggplant, use zucchini
