Bringal/egg plant/aubergine curry


I know Bringal belongs to a 'not so popular' category among many people,but a little more oil and dash of different spices can make make this dish top the charts!


Ingredients:
  • Bringal - 8 to 10 sliced in equal sizes and soaked in water
  • oil - 4 to 5 tsp
  • musturd seeds - 1 tsp
  • salt - to taste
  • turmeric pdr - 1/2 tsp

to be ground into powder:

  • red chillies - 3 to 4
  • corriander seeds - 2 tsp
  • til seeds - 1 tsp
  • groundnuts - 1 tsp
  • channa dal - 1 tsp

Method of preparation:

  • Heat a kadai and when hot add few drops of oil and fry all the ingredients to be made into a powder. cool and grind them
  • now in the same kadai add oil generously abt 4 tsp and when hot add musturd seeds, when they spullter add the cut bringals and stir well
  • Add the salt,turmeric,and the powder that has been finely grounded.
  • lower the heat,cover the pan and cook them for abt 8 mins so that the bringal absorbs the spices and oil.
  • garnish with celantra leaves if neccesary and serve!

serving suggestions:

taste best with hot steamed rice with ghee/sambhar rice/rasam rice.
