Indian Dhal With Tomato and Aubergine image

A wonderful side dish to go with your curry. Dhal (lentils) are an important food in India and are eaten at most meals. This recipe adds a new dimension to Dhal with the added tomato and Eggplant. One of my Indian friends sent me the recipe and I'm very pleased that he did. The preparation and cooking is so simple anyone can cook this.
