2 medium eggplants, peeled and cut into 2 inch cubes

3 onions, cut in thin slices

2 cloves garlic, minced

salt and pepper to taste

2 cans chickpeas, drained and rinsed under cold water

In a large skillet, heat the oil to just before the smoking point.  Saute the eggplant cubes, stirring frequently, until they are browned on all sides.  Remove from pan.

Add the onions and garlic to pan and saute for 5 minutes.  Place eggplant in a 9 x 13 baking pan.  Add onions, garlic, salt and pepper.  Combine the water with the tomatoes.  Scatter the chickpeas on top and cover with tomatoes.
