Hi,
I made your eggplant stew... I found it a little bland, and that the eggplant came out a bit undercooked. Any suggestions on how to fix these problems?
Thanks!
Allison,
You may either increase the cooking time or cut the eggplants smaller to get them fully cooked. In fact, they should be very soft.
Also you may try using more tomatoes for a better flavor.
Hope this helps!

I use several cloves of garlic when cooking the onion then whilst simmering all the ingredients add a sprinkle of sugar and a good squeeze of lemon juice
