Does anyone know the English name of the vegetable that looks like a green pea in Thai Green Curry? My wife says it's from the eggplant family - the Thai name sounds like "makhua something". I know that "makhua ted" is tomato, if that helps in deciphering my phonetic Thai...

It's called makhua the little one.

And the big one if buying thai eggplant

In English, usually "Pea Aubergine"; in American, "Pea Eggplant". However, Pea Aubergine (Solanum torvum) isn't actually the same species as true aubergines (Solanum melongena).

Thanks for the info. Now I know. It's certainly an interesting vegetable. Never heard of 'turkey berries' before.
