I am on vacation in my in laws house and have no time to blog! But my mother in law being an excellent cook, I'm enjoying some lovely home cooked food! So when I found sometime, I decided to write a recipe. Hope you enjoy this flavorful brinjal curry!
Brinjal is one of the famous vegetables in our house. So many dishes can be made with brinjal and this is one of the easiest to make! It tastes great with rice, since this is a gravy it can be had with rotis too. This is made as a curry with tamarind juice and it tastes awesome.
Ingredients
Method
1. Cut the brinjal and cook them in some water until it is slightly cooked. Add water till the brinjals are submerged in water.
2. Grind the onions and tomatoes to a paste and set aside.
3. In a pan, add oil and cumin seeds. Once the cumin seeds splutter ad the ground onion-tomato paste.
4. Add curry leaves and saute for a few minutes, about 3-4 minutes in medium flame.
5. Add the turmeric powder, red chilli powder and pepper powder and mix well. Allow to cook for a few minutes.
6. Now add the cooked brinjals (along with the water). Mix well.
7. Add the tamarind water and mix everything together.
8. Allow to cook until the curry is slightly thickened and switch off.
Notes
1. If you want a more dry gravy, then let it simmer for a while longer until the gravy reaches your required consistency.
2. Adjust spice level to your preference.
Until next time,
