. Yogurt ( optional)
 * 4 large aubergines / egg plant (aswad)
 * 3 tbsp Peanut butter
 * 5 lemons
 * 1 tsp salt
 * 1 tsp black pepper powder
 * 1/2 tsp cumin
 * 1 tbsp vinegar
 * 3 cloves garlic
 * 1 green pepper (optional)
 * 1 small Onion (optional)
 * 5 green chilies (optional)

Directions

 * 1) Heat aubergines on flame of stove.
 * 2) Peel when soft and burnt.
 * 3) In a bowl, mix Peanut butter with lemon juice.
 * 4) Add aubergines to mixture and mash.
 * 5) Add one tablespoon of vinegar, cumin, salt, pepper and crushed garlic.
