Guthi Vankaya Curry

This recipe was obtained online (dont remember where) and modified by me. Everyone loved it and my friend kavitha wanted it so I thought I should put it online so.......here goes the recipe for stuffed brinjal. I used approximations so please modify as per your taste.

Garlic -3
Onions-2
Round Brinjal - 7

Corrainder seeds - 1tbsp
Cumin seeds - 1tbsp
red Chillies - 3 to 4
Tamrind Paste - 1 tsp

Fry the chopped onions and garlic. After they are done, let them cool. Grind and make a smooth paste. Keep them aside.

Fry corriander seeds, cumin seeds, red chillies and then grind them along with a little butter, sugar and salt.

Add this ground mix to the onion paste and mix. Make slits into the brinjal and stuff this paste. Keep the extra remaining paste and add it to the dish later.

In the pan add oil and add cumin, curry leaves, mustard seeds etc. Add the brinjals and the extra left-over paste. Add salt and chilli powder. Add Tamrind paste and a cup of water. Let them cook and then when finished garnish with corrainder.


I was too lazy one day to stuff the brinjals so I just cut up the brinjal into 4 pieces and then just added the paste... the curry still turned out good. I will try and remember to take a picture next time I make it and post it.
