Stuffed Brinjals
Vegetables: Small green or purple Brinjals.
Preparing the Brinjals:
Slit the Brinjals from opposite side of the stem into four without separating them into pieces. Keep them in a bowl of water.
Stuffing:
Heat very little oil in the pan. Add red chilies, gram dal, black gram dal & fry till brown. Then add cumin seeds, fenugreek seeds & hing. When done remove from fire. Add salt to taste, tamarind, and turmeric. Grind all of the above into fine powder.
Procedure :
1: Drain the Brinjals.
2: Stuff the above powder into Brinjals.
3: Add some oil in a frying pan. When the oil is smoking add stuffed brinjals to it. Cover with a lid and fry in slow fire.
Turn from time to time uuntil all sides are golden brown in color.
4: Place fried stuffed Brinjals in a serving plate and garnish with chopped green coriander.
Note:
Choose quantity of each ingradient based on how many Brinjals you want to stuff.
If you think the Brinjals will separate into pieces after stuffing, you can tie them with a thread and fry.

Thanks Aigo! Is gram dal the same as chana dal or urad dal?
Also, how to prevent the masala from falling out of the brinjal? Do I tie them or something?
Yes gram is same as chana.
When you fry all the ingradients in little oil the powder becomes siightly lumpy and you can stuff easily. Yes you can tie the brinjal with thread if required.
Are there any specific recipes you girls want to know?
This one looks yummy and i have all the ingredients. I will try it out soon. Right now still not settled back in.
