Ingredients:

Recipe :

  • Step 1 Cut the brinjals lengthwise

    To prepare this yummy recipe, cut the eggplant (baingan) into 3-inch long pieces. Cut them lengthwise and drop them in water to avoid decoloring. Take thin, long brinjals for this recipe. You can remove or keep the stems.

  • Step 2 Chop the veggies well

    Peel the onion and cut it lengthwise in a bowl. Next, cut green chilies in a small bowl. Peel and chop garlic and keep aside.

  • Step 3 Heat oil and saute

    Now, put a pan on medium flame and heat oil in it. When the oil is hot enough, add mustard seeds, cumin seeds, cloves, cinnamon sticks along with curry leaves. Saute for a few seconds and then add the chopped garlic in it, stir and saute the garlic until the raw smell goes away.

  • Step 4 Cook in the masala

    Then, add onion in the pan along with eggplant pieces in it. Stir to mix the masala, and quickly pour a cup or two of water in the pan. Next, add the salt along with turmeric powder on the brinjal and mix once again.

  • Step 5 Thicken the mixture

    Afterward, cover the pan with a lid and cook till the brinjal turns soft. Take a small bowl and mix together besan and water to make the besan starch and then, add it to the pan. This will thicken the mixture.

  • Step 6 Cook till done

    Mix well the besan starch with the brinjal and cook the curry till they turn tender and soft. Turn off the flame when the curry is prepared. Baingan Masala Curry is ready, enjoy with roti and steamed rice.
