{"product_id":"thai-green-aubergines","title":"Thai Green Aubergines","description":"\u003cp\u003eThai green aubergines are round, golf ball sized fruit with pale green skin streaked in white and a firm, seedy flesh. They have a slightly bitter edge and hold their shape in a curry, soaking up coconut milk and spice without going to mush. Thai cooks quarter them into green and red curries, and they work in a South Indian kuzhambu or a Sri Lankan coconut curry in the same way as small purple brinjals.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to use it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eRinse, trim the stalks and cut each one into quarters just before it goes into the pot, dropping the pieces into salted water if you need to hold them. Simmer in a green curry with coconut milk, basil and lime leaves for about 8 minutes, until tender but still whole. For an Indian dish, cut a cross into the base, stuff with a roasted peanut and spice paste, and cook covered in a little oil until soft.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eGood to know\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlso called makheua pro or Thai eggplant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSkin and seeds are eaten\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChoose firm aubergines with tight, unwrinkled skin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold in a tied bag\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Chandra Stores","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55646331797843,"sku":null,"price":6.29,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1101\/7433\/9411\/files\/thai-green-aubergines-front.png?v=1793195691","url":"https:\/\/chandrastores.co.uk\/products\/thai-green-aubergines","provider":"Chandra Stores","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
