Brinjal Curry
Brinjal Curry.. Everyone knows to make brinjal curry! Add oil, splutter mustard seeds, urad dal, add the chopped brinjal. Add salt, turmeric, chilli powder...Simmer till done! Who does not know to make this! Want a twist in this? Well, we call it kathrikkai podi thoovi, means brinjal with curry powder. Just a tiny addition- increases the flavour tremendously!
