Brinjal Stir Fry

This is a very simple and delicious dish to make. I used baby brinjals to make it but it can be made with other variety of brinjals as well. It is excellent as a side dish for chapatis.

Ingredients

Baby Brinjals – 8

Oil – 2 tbsp

Cumin seeds – ½ tsp

Onion – 1- chopped into medium pieces

Turmeric powder – 1 tsp

Red chili powder – 1 tsp

Coriander powder – 1 tsp

Cumin powder – 1 tsp

Garam masala powder – ½ tsp

Salt

Lemon juice – 1 tsp

Coriander leaves for garnishing.

Method

Cut the Brinjals into medium strips and dip it in salted water so that the color does not change.

Heat oil in a non-stick pan. Add cumin seeds and let it crackle. Add onion and sauté till it turns pink. Add turmeric powder, red chili powder, coriander powder, cumin powder, garam masala powder and salt. Add the Brinjals and give it a mix. Cover and cook on low flame till Brinjals are done. Sprinkle some water if needed. Once done add lemon juice and garnish with coriander leaves. Serve hot
