Ta da…I did it, again, my favorite good old Bagara baingan, I feel like…as though I have conquered this one dish all by myself. If I could cook a dish, over and over without any sort of boredom means,…it should be either that quintessential Chicken Biriyani or Brinjal Sheruva I will Never, Ever mess them up:) Yeah, bcause…I won’t be trying anything stupid:) Oh man, its damn hard to find these native vegetables, here:( I happen to take a special trip to the nearby big city, about 150 miles from here…for shopping this pretty looking Indian egg-plants, can you imagine that!!!
Ingredients:
Eggplants 5
Onion 1 large grated
Ginger-garlic paste 1 spoon
Tomatoes 1 cup – puree
Tamarind paste – less than 1/4 spoon
Peanuts 1 fistful – paste
Sesame seeds 2 spoons – paste
Salt, Turmeric and Chili powder
Sesame oil and tempering spices.
Method:
Heat oil in a wok. Add the tempering spices / I simply skip this procedure sometimes.
Now add, onion and ginger-garlic…fry real good till the raw odor is gone.
Add the eggplants and salt, turmeric and chili powders. Cover and cook briefly.
Further add tomato puree and tamarind paste. Cover and cook till the eggplants are tender.
Finally add peanuts and sesame powders. Cook over high heat for about 2-4 minutes, once the oil shows up on the top, remove from heat.
Serve to go with your biriyanis, pulavs, plain steamed rice or with rotis, enjoy.
