- 1
Wash the brinjal and chop off its stalk. Cut the vegetable along the cross-section into discs
- 2
In a mixing bowl, combine the turmeric powder, salt, sugar, rice flour and gram flour. Add the brinjal slices to the bowl and coat them with the spices.
- 3
The salt and sugar will draw out the water from the brinjal slices and soften them up. The moisture generated will also help all the flavours mingle nicely.
- 4
Heat mustard oil in a skillet till it starts smoking lightly. Lower the marinated brinjal slices into the oil one by one and fry them on each side, for about 3 minutes, till they are golden. I use a fork just to make holes so that it gets cooked from inside as I avoid deep fry. Serve hot to maintain the crispiness as a side dish,
