This is a fabulous Bhaji recipe that I make :) I hope you enjoy it! Ingredients:
1 eggplant |
oil, for frying the seasoning |
1 teaspoon black gram dal |
2/3 teaspoon black mustard seeds or 2/3 teaspoon brown mustard seeds |
2 red chilies, roughly chopped (alternatively, you can use green chiles) |
1/2 teaspoon asafetida powder |
1/4 teaspoon sugar |
salt, to taste |
4 tablespoons coconut, grated |
1/2 medium onion |
Directions:
1. First you will need to grill or roast your eggplant.
2. Remove the skin, and then mash the eggplant and set aside (keep warm).
3. Sometimes I keep my oven relatively warm and put the eggplant in there to keep it warm.
4. Heat your oil, and add the black gram dhal, mustard seeds, chiles, and asafoetida one at a time, and allow to splutter.
5. Once this occurs, pour seasoning over mashed eggplant, and season with salt and sugar.
6. Add grated coconut and chopped onion, and mix together.
7. SERVE & ENJOY! :).
