Time 1h

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 eggplant, thinly sliced
4 tablespoons coriander powder
1/2 tablespoon cumin powder
1 tablespoon chili powder
1/2 tablespoon turmeric powder
1 teaspoon ginger paste
1 teaspoon garlic paste
1/4 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
1/2 tablespoon garam masala
salt
1/2 cup oil
1 tablespoon oil

Steps:

  • Make slits on the eggplant slices.
  • Mix all the other ingredients ( spices) except the oil.
  • Add about a tablespoon of water to wet the mix.
  • Apply the spice mix on the eggplant slices.
  • Add about a tablespoon of oil to the frying pan and fry a batch of the eggplant slices on one side.
  • Turn over the eggplant slices and pour some more oil and fry.
  • Complete with the remaining slices.
  • Serve with Indian bread.
  • Note: I try to use as much less oil as possible.
  • Variation:.
  • Cut up the eggplant into thin strips.
  • Heat the oil.
  • Put all the ingredients (except eggplant) and saute for 2-3 minutes.
  • Add eggplant strips.
  • Cook for about 15-20 minutes on fairly high heat. Stir in between so that nothing sticks to the bottom of the pan.
  • Enjoy this easier version :).
