In a non-stick pan, fry tofu and eggplant gently in the oil, until evenly browned. Remove from pan. Add onion to the same pan and cook gently until softened. Add garlic and chilli and cook for a further minute. Add remaining ingredients, and the cooked tofu and aubergine. Simmer gently until the vegetables are just cooked (about 7 minutes). Season to taste. I usually serve this whole wheat macaroni or roasted potatoes. It stays warm in a low oven or on a hotplate without drying so it's great for Shabbat.
