THAI EGGPLANT DIP (NAM PRIK NOOM)
This is a very tasty way to prepare eggplant.,almost like an Asian baba ganoush.Note that it is supposed to be very spicy,but poblanos do vary a lot ,so you may want to use more or less depending on your tastes and the peppers you have.I suspect it would be more authentic to use small thai chiles ,but I've always made it like this with good results.another good way to prepare this would be to char all the ingredients on an outdoor grill to impart an even smokier flavor.
