Brinjal Curry - Tasty

Cooked low and slow until the masala melds into the gravy, this chicken curry carries the unmistakable warmth of Kerala spices — black pepper, curry leaves, and coconut. Pair it with steaming rice and a crisp pappadam.

Ingredientsfor 3 servings

1 nos Brinjal large size
1 nos Onion large size
Ginger garlic mixture - 1 tbsp
1/2 tsp Turmeric powder
1 tbsp Chilli powder depends on your spicyness
11/2 tbsp Coriander powder
1 tsp Garam masala powder
Or
1 tbsp Chicken masala
Salt, to taste
Oil, to taste
Coriander leaves

Preparation

Step 1
Cut brinjal in quarter sizes and set aside. :-It can be put in salted water if necessary, which is optional).
Step 2
Pour oil into a pan and heat it.
Step 3
Add onions and cook until translucent.
Step 4
Add ginger-garlic mixture and stir till the raw smell goes.
Step 5
Add the masala in order and fry for some time.
Step 6
Add the cut brinjals and mix with the masalas.
Step 7
Add coriander leaves and sufficient amount of water to cook the brinjals :- It doesn`t take much time to cook.
Step 8
When cooked, smash the brinjals slightly to make the gravy thick.
Step 9
When required amount of gravy is left, remove from fire and serve with rotis or chapattis.

Tip

Taste the gravy before adding the main ingredient. It should be well-seasoned and balanced on its own — the protein or vegetable will dilute it slightly.
