Preparation

  1. In a large pot, melt the butter over low heat and whisk in the flour. Cook, whisking constantly, for 2 minutes. Add the soy sauce, honey, syrup, ketchup, pumpkin puree, wine, brandy, mustard, nutmeg and curry. Blend and simmer 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  2. Meanwhile, in another large pan, heat the oil and saute the lamb and onion, until the lamb is cooked to desired degree of doneness, about 10 minutes for medium rare. Toss in the eggplant and add the curry sauce. Heat through and simmer 3 to 5 minutes, or until the eggplant loses its rawness. Serve over rice.
