UniqueWord Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 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...

AyG Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 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). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
