A simple yet a flavourful and a delicious side dish for mealtimes. It goes well with both Rotis and Rice. In this particular recipe of mine, I have used Green Brinjals or Eggplants. It turned out so very yum. Both Lunch and Dinner, this dish is super delicious. Everyone would love to dig in.

The best part is that it gets done easily. A much better choice for Lunchbox ideas too. A simple Salad with piping hot Bharwa Masala Baingan and homemade Rotis or Chapatis and even Parathas is a great option on any given day. The final look of the dish is also super tempting.

Enjoy Cooking with Zeen!

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.
