Spicy Onion Stuffed Baingan

This is another variety of stuffing for brinjals which can only enhance the taste of brinjals. For this also we can take round even sized brinjals.

Ingredients:

500g brinjals, 4 medium size onions, 2 tsp chana dal (Bengal gram), 1 tsp jeera, 1 small piece of ginger finely chopped (optional), ¼ tsp haldi(turmeric powder), 1tsp red chilli powder, 2 tbsp tamarind pulp, 2 tbsp oil and salt to taste.

Preparation:

1. Chop the onions finely and add chana dal, jeera, ginger, haldi, salt, chilli powder and mix well. Wash and slit each baingan into four without fully disintegrating. 
2. Heat oil in a pan, stuff the spicy onion into each brinjal and leave them into the oil. 
3. After ten minutes of cooking add the tamarind pulp let it simmer for ten more minutes or till it is soft.

Serve hot with rice or roti. Print
