Recipe by Chris Morocco Japanese eggplants are smaller, sweeter, and faster-cooking than other types. If using globe eggplants, slice them into half-inch rounds.

Ingredients

6 Fresno chiles, seeds removed from 3, chopped 4 garlic cloves 2 lemongrass stalks, bottom third only, tough outer layers removed, finely grated 1/3 cup vegetable oil 1 tablespoon finely grated peeled ginger 1 teaspoon ground cumin 1/2 teaspoon sugar 1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more 4 Japanese eggplants, halved lengthwise

Instructions

Purée chiles, garlic, lemongrass, oil, ginger, cumin, sugar, and 1 tsp. salt in a blender or food processor until smooth. Score cut sides of eggplant in a cross-hatch pattern with the tip of a sharp knife. Coat each eggplant liberally with curry paste; set aside any remaining paste. Let eggplants sit at least 10 minutes and up to 1 hour. Prepare a grill for medium-high heat. Lightly season eggplants with salt and grill, turning occasionally, until browned and tender, about 5 minutes per side. Serve with reserved curry paste.
