• 3 potato
• 500 gms brinjal
• 1 tsp coriander powder
• 1 tsp cumin seeds
• Ginger garlic paste
• 2 tomato
• Red chilli powder
• 1 onion
• 1/2 tsp turmeric powder
• 1 tsp coriander
• 1/2 tsp garam masala
• Salt
• Cooking oil

• Start by cutting 500 gms of brinjal into medium-sized pieces and then three medium-sized potatoes into cubes.
• To prevent the brinjal pieces from getting blackened, the chopped pieces should be marinated in water for a little time before preparing the remaining ingredients. It is a very simple procedure, and still, the entire dish looks fresh.
• Heat two tablespoons of oil in a kadai or a wide pan over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add one teaspoon of cumin seeds, let it splutter for a few seconds, and give out its fragrant aroma.
• The first tempering must be done because this forms the base of the dish's flavour profile. Once the cumin seeds have spluttered, add one finely chopped onion to the pan. To saut the onion to a rich golden brown gives that deep, sweet depth to the dish-it should take five to seven minutes.
• Once you are done with that, toss the ginger-garlic paste in the pan for one teaspoon and saut it for almost a minute so the raw smell of the ginger and garlic fades away. These ingredients put together form a good base that lifts the dish.
• Add two chopped tomatoes to the mixture. Cook until they get soft and mushy, for about five to six minutes. Tomatoes are not there only to add acidity; they do help in developing this appetizing sauce that is luscious in all its ways to coat the vegetables.
• Add half the teaspoon of turmeric powder, one teaspoon of red chilli powder, and coriander powder. Also, add one teaspoon and half a teaspoon of garam masala to the pan.
• Mix well these spices into the onion-tomato mixture. This time, let it cook for another two to three minutes, which helps develop flavours that let spices bloom in oil.
• Let the spices be well incorporated, and then drain all the water from the soaked brinjal. Add the chopped brinjal and cubed potatoes to the kadai. Toss the vegetables in the masala mixture so that they get evenly coated.
• This way, every bite would be flavourful. Once you have mixed everything, add salt to taste and add half a cup of water to the pan. Cover the kadai with a lid and cook on a reduced flame for 15 to 20 minutes. Intermittently stir to prevent burning or stickiness on the bottom. That way, it will be evenly cooked throughout.
• The vegetables are cooked in the spices to tenderise, and the rich flavours imbue the Aloo Baingan once cooked. The finishing touch is a sprinkle of freshly chopped coriander leaves, a burst of colour that brightens the dish.
• This brinjal and potato dish is best served hot with warm roti or fluffy rice. The combination of spices, tender vegetables, and aromatic garnish makes for a comforting and satisfying meal that is sure to please all those sitting at the table.
• Whether it's a weeknight dinner or a special occasion, this is an excellent choice that highlights the natural goodness recipe of Aloo Baingan in a perfectly spiced preparation. Enjoy!
