Winters come with loads of Vegetables and Fruits that are so fresh and healthy. Eggplants or Aubergines or Brinjals are one such delightful Vegetable.
This is my family's favourite one. Not only is it healthy, it's absolutely easy to do as well.
Instead of deep frying it, I prefer to serve them in this way to my lovely family.
It goes very well with simple Rotis or Chapatis. You can serve them alongside boiled Rice too for mealtimes. It works just fine. Lunch, Brunch, Snack or even a Dinner, it is absolutely delicious. You will thoroughly enjoy it's melt in mouth and creamy texture.

Enjoy Cooking with Zeen!

Steps

40 minutes

1

Preheat your oven on 200° before proceeding with the recipe. First of all, wash and slice the Eggplants into slices. They should not be too thick nor too thin. That's it. Until the oven gets preheated for about 10 minutes, keep the Eggplant slices immersed in salted water.

Homemaker by choice and a passionate cook by heart. An aspiring cook who actually never knew anything about Cooking until i became a mother myself.With Motherhood came the responsibilities as well and this was the turning point in my life.I started to learn the ABC's of cooking, taking help from my mother and my MIL. And time just flew. I spread my wings higher and higher. With my love for excellence and innovation, i stepped into a world of homecooks with my exposure to Cookpad one fine day on the social media. And there was no looking back since then and i have not only shared recipes here on this wonderful platform but also have made some lovely friends as well. Today iam successful because of my hard work, dedication and loads of good wishes of my family and my kids in particular.
