Green curry paste:
Using a food processor or blender, combine all ingredients and blend until all combined. Set aside. Pack into a glass container in refrigerator and use within one week.

For the curry:
Heat a large saute pan on medium-high heat. Coat bottom of pan with oil and fry the curry paste in hot oil for about 3 minutes. Add eggplant, and onions and stir to coat. Next add carrot juice and coconut milk. Bring to a simmer, scraping up bits of curry at the bottom of the pan.

Lower heat to simmer and add mushrooms, carrots and cilantro. Add lemongrass pieces (to be fished out later).

Simmer for about 25 minutes or until eggplants are soft. Stir in coconut skyr until well incorporated. Add lime juice and taste for seasoning (can adjust salt, spiciness, etc.).
