Shorshe begun

Eggplant (begun) is one of my favorite vegetable. My mom cooks it in a variety of ways. Sometimes she will fries it after dipping them in a batter of chickpea. Sometimes she will just grill it. Other times she adds them in mixed veggies, fish curry, etc. And on lazy days she just fries them crisp. My favorite preparation of eggplant is what I am going to share here today. It's a very easy and very fast recipe. As I had to take my cats to the vet today I had little time to cook. Thus, I put together Shorshe Begun(eggplant in mustard gravy). It was superb but not like my maa's one still!!!! Relax and enjoy the recipe.
