As I mentioned earlier, my mother is born and brought up in Hyderabad. So from our childhood, we are eating many Hyderabadi dishes. My Aai is pure vegetarian… so only veg:). Baghare baigan is a typical Hyderabadi dish. It is very close to Maharashtrian Bharli vangi:)
Ingredients
Small Eggplants (baingan) - 5-6
Sesame seeds - 2 tablespoons
Peanuts - 2 tablespoons
Grated coconut - 2 tablespoons
Chopped onion - 2 medium
Chopped Garlic - 1 teaspoon
Chopped Ginger - 1 teaspoon
Green chilies - 2
Coriander powder - 1/2 teaspoon
Cumin powder - 1/2 teaspoon
Red chili powder - 1 teaspoon
Tamarind pulp - 1 teaspoon
Mustard seeds - 1/2 teaspoon
fenugreek seeds - 1/4 teaspoon
Turmeric powder - 1/2 teaspoon
Oil - 2-3 tablespoon
Salt to taste
Procedure
Remove the stem of eggplants and give 2 vertical slits to each eggplant. Do not give cut till end. Keep aside. Now roast Sesame seeds, peanuts, coconut, onion, garlic and ginger one by one on a low flame. Colour should change to slightly brown. Mix above ingredients with tamarind pulp, green chili, red chili powder, cumin powder, coriander powder and make a smooth paste with little water. Heat oil in a kadai and make tadka of Mustard seeds, fenugreek seeds and Turmeric powder. Now fry eggplant in it. Fry till it becomes slightly brown. Remove it and keep aside. Now add the paste in kadai. Fry till it leaves oil from sides. Put eggplants into it. Add little water and salt. Cover and cook on low flame till baingan cooks properly. Serve hot with Rice/ Roti.
