Cut the eggplant length wise and roast it on the open flame of the stove. If you do not have a flame stove, roast the egg plant with some oil brushed on the cut side at 400 degrees for 20 minutes. Let it cool a bit and peel the skin off and chop the eggplant into small pieces

Heat oil in a pan and fry the onions till they start turning brown. Add ginger garlic paste and fry for a minute. Add the egg plant and all the spices and mix well and cover and cook for 10 minutes. Add the chickpeas and the beaten yogurt cover and simmer for 10 minutes. Garnish with a handful of chopped cilantro and enjoy with rice or roti
