           Egg plant makes this dish colourful and tasty.  Do you know that  eggplant received its name because the vegetable resembled goose eggs and  I also had read a funny thing about Eggplant that  Europeans in the 16th century believed that eggplants caused insanity and it called it as Mad Apple.
