DISH NAME : BEGUN BHAJA (FRIED EGGPLANT)
Preparation Time : 15 minutes
Cooking Time : 15 minutes
Description
Begun bhaja or fried eggplant is one of the simplest dishes one can cook. This delicious dish is crispy from outside and soft from inside. The only dis advantage with this dish is that, Aubergine or brinjal absorbs a lot of oil.
There are different varities of brinjal varying in color & shapes. Brinjals are green, violet & white. Green ones are slender. Purple ones come in 2 sizes--small & big. Some varieties of brinjal are egg shaped and hence called egg plants. Brinjals usually have a slight bitter taste. To reduce the bitterness, slice the brinjal, sprinkle salt evenly over it and mix well. Bitterness will be reduced after some water has been drained out.Rinse well after 10 minutes and use as required. It is a good source of dietary fibre.
Note
1) Use large purple brinjal for this recipe.
