Put all the ingredients in a large saucepan. Cook over a low flame, covered, stirring occasionally. Add some warm water, if necessary. Keep on cooking
until aubergines are just tender, but still crisp and crunchy and the mixture thickens. Serve hot.
Note
- - You can use fresh herbs instead of dried ones and a little onion, if wished.
In this case add fresh basil in the last minutes of cooking.
- - With the same ingredients you can prepare a sauce.
In this case you have to cut aubergines in little pieces and cook them for a longer time (35-40 minutes).
