Brinjal/Egg Plant/Katharikkai Stir Fry

Actually, Brinjal is a fruit. Other names for this fruit are Eggplant, mad-apple, melongene. It is being available in different size and color. But most seen color is Purple. We would have prepared curry, Kuzhambu using Brinjal. For a change try making Stir fry. It will be fantastic. Let's see how to make.

Ingredients:

Brinjal – 5
Coconut – ¼ cup
Turmeric powder – ¼ tsp
Red chilli powder – 1 tablespoon
Coriander powder – 1 tablespoon
Oil for seasoning
Salt to taste
Coriander leaves for garnishing

Steps:

Wash brinjal and cut into small pieces. Put cut pieces into water until cooking in order to avoid getting darken.

Add Coconut, Turmeric, Red chilli, Coriander powder in a mixture jar and make coarse powder.

Heat 2 teaspoon of oil in a pan. Once oil hot add small cut brinjal pieces. Cook for 4 minutes. 

Once it is cooked, Add ground coconut powder and stir it.

Add salt as per your taste. Let it cook for another 4 minutes. No need to add water. If you feel burning, just sprinkle very little water.
