Delicious brinjal curry with tomatoes & spices – baingan curry

September 23, 2016 By admin Leave a Comment

Many people simply do not like brinjal or eggplant. Many of them do not even know, why they do not like eggplant, haha. They simply do :). It may be just because they not even tried many such dishes or they do not like the taste of brinjal. If the second one is your case then nobody can help you. But if the first one is your case then you are at right place. Brinjal curry with tomatoes and a lot of roasted spices is really very delicious dish and there is no harm in try this dish at home.

But I do not think you dislike eggplant rather you are in that group of people who actually like eggplant, like me. There are many delicious dishes where brinjals are added, but there are few super delicious dishes what primarily made with a lot of brinjals, is it not? Apart from brinjal curry I also prefer baingan bharta, another popular North Indian dish. So do you like any other special dish made with brinjals? Is there any then share that name with me and other readers too.

I won’t say it’s an easy recipe though it looks so and takes very less time too. Then why is it a not easy dish to make? This dish needs a lot of roasted spices so that it creates a fantastic aroma what makes it a mouth-watering dish. But if you add too many spices then you will create very strong aroma what is not expected. So add fewer spices if you have doubt but do not add excess spices.

Okay fine, now let’s talk about brinjal curry. It’s a rich tomato based spicy brinjal curry dish. All roasted spices are used here and create pickle flavor. You need to roast coriander (dhania), cumin (jeera), mustard (sarso), ajwain & fennel (saunf)  seeds and then make the powder with a grinder. Properly ripe tomatoes are used in brinjal curry. Those tomatoes bring reddish color and slightly sweet and sour taste in this dish.
