You can also serve the dish with roti/chappathis too. Brinjal/Eggplant is a favorite vegetable commonly used in Indian and regional Cuisines to make curries, gravies, fries, and even snacks. I love brinjal in all forms. The texture of Vazhuthananga Mezhukkupuratti is all too smooth and soft to touch. A bit slimy perhaps. But its great for me. This is that humble vegetable we all fall after. And Brinjal Stir Fry is the most easiest and very basic dish that requires just 4 simple ingredients.

Brinjal cooks fast and you have to be careful it doesn’t overcook and get all mashed up. Fried vegetables are altogether tasty and Vazhuthananga Mezhukkupuratti is no way behind. Brinjals are very healthy too. Rich in iron, vitamins, and fiber, I often try to incorporate brinjal based dishes in my diet. Do try this simple stir fry at home and remember to send me feedback. I have prepared the dish in coconut oil. I think that’s the trick for the aromatic flavor. My kid didn’t like brinjals but when I prepared this dish, he didn’t even bothered to ask me what was the vegetable. The whole dish disappeared in a flash. As a responsible mom, there is nothing more that is needed. I was content that my efforts have won. You can explore a well detailed Brinjal Stir Fry recipe here .
