Alloo Baigan Sabji Recipe
Posted on Monday, December 7, 2009 in Uncategorized
I will be teaching how to make my style Alloo Baigan Dry Sabji today . I am not going to do all those nonsense of giving each and every ingredients which make you feel its a great thing and a pro stuff . We need some basic stuff and some interest of cooking and thats all required for great curry . so go on ..
Ingredients (serving for 2)
- Some Oil (Mustard Oil is preferred , but any oil will do)
- half spoon mustard seeds, 2-3 green chillies, Lots of Garlic (you can put less if you dont like it)
- 4 mid size Potato cut into medium size ( make sure its not very small , an average potato cut into 2-3 pieces )
- 1 Big Brinjal or 2-3 small ones (cut double the size of Potato or sliced long , I prefer long)
- Regular masala like Coriander powder , Turmeric and Some garam masala .
Procedure
- Put Oil in the pan (something in which you make your curries) and once its hot enough , put your chillies , mustard and garlic into that , you can put some 1 Tejpatta if you know what it is , else forget it .
- after some seconds once it looks brownish , put washed Potato and Brinjal into oil , mix it well and leave it for some time like 2-3 min (You can put cover it with a lid if you want , not mandatory) .
- Make sure you have good amount of oil in pan so that the stuff at the bottom is getting cooked well, the main idea is that whatever is at the bottom of pan is getting little fried with Oil and the part which is above is also getting cooked through heat . Then keep mixing it well and make sure each part of ingredient gets a chance to reach bottom and be there for some minutes , so everything is equally fried . Make sure you are around and dont let it burn (if its gets little bit , dont panic , its not a big deal , actually its better , contributes to the taste also )
- Now mix half teaspoon of Turmeric , 1 full spoon of coriender powder and 1 teaspoon of garam masala and one spoon of salt , truely speaking this is something you have to find out as per your taste in the long run , it will come by practice , so make mistakes . People who dont make mistakes and everytime their ratio of everything is perfect actually sucks and never make any tasty food (my thinking) , So making mistake is important , mess it up twice or thrice and you are a cook !! .
- make sure you dont mix it so hard that bringals loose their shape, be soft with it . Take a spoon full and taste if it tastes better or anything missing , readjust your masala’s if needed. No need to garnish it with anything unless you are doing all this for commercial puspose ..
Try it and share with me how was it ..
