Jeera Baigan

Its a recipe I came up with when I didn't feel like spending lots of a time cooking. Its a really simple recipe goes well with rice as well as rotis. Hope you enjoy it :)

Ingredients

Chopped Brinjal - 4 to 5 cups
Roasted cumin or jeera powder - 2 tbsp
Black mustard seeds
Salt
Coriander powder - 1 tsp
Urad dal - 2 tsp

Process
  1. Put some oil in cooking pan and heat.
  2. Add the mustard seed and lets them pop. Then the add the urad dal and stir till the urad dal becomes slightly golden.
  3. Add the chopped brinjal ( I used 1 big fat brinjal). Let it fry.
  4. Add salt to taste, cumin powder and fry for some time. Keep stirring to avoid brinjal being stuck to bottom.
  5. When brinjal starts becoming soft, add the roasted jeera powder.
Note: You can change the spices measurement according to your taste. Various other combination of spices will also work well I guess. Have to keep trying ;)
