    Easy brinjal sabzi for phulka, roti, flat breads, pulao too. Step by step pictures recipe.

    easy-brinjal-sabzi

    I can never get enough of brinjal dishes. Can happily make it everyday. The only veg I myself eat without any compulsion.

    Vj showed me a brinjal dish in you tube. Was such a drool worthy recipe for a brinjal lover like me. Bought aubergine for this sake and made bharta last week😁.

    So again ordered the same. Some how kept forgetting or lazy to make as it's not universal dish.

    Means I have to make another for boys. Today finally made and it was too good. Was so excited that wanted to share it immediately here.

    I have not made sabzi by shallow frying or deep frying the veggies. But this was too tempting to give it a try.

    Had it with peas pulao and was yummy. Vj too had it. I was feeling like having as such. Should be perfect to go with phulka, roti or other flatbreads.

    Instructions

    • Chop onion, garlic and green chilli finely, capsicum, tomatoes roughly, brinjal into cubes. Make sure brinjal is not having any water.
    • Heat a pan with sufficient oil to shallow fry brinjal. Add cubed brinjal carefully.
    • Turn occasionally for even browning. Once golden in colour drain from oil, keep aside.
    • Heat 1 tablespoon oil in the pan and add garlic, green chilli, chopped onion together. Fry till onion turns soft.
    • Add chopped capsicum and fry for a minute.
    • In goes tomatoes, salt, pepper and other spice powders. Cook until tomatoes turn soft and mushy. Takes roughly 4 minutes.
    • Add fried brinjal, mix well. Cook covered for 3-4 minutes. Garnish with coriander leaves (I skipped as I had no stock).

    Notes

    • Shallow frying gives great flavour to the brinjal. You can also use less oil and try.
    • The sabzi doesnt take oil, so use less for frying onion and others. I added more and was too oily I felt.
