- Wash and make a slit in brinjal/eggplant then make another slit parallel to it.
- Now stuff the the brinjal/eggplant with the ground powder. Heat oil in a pan/ kadai and add stuffed brinjal one by one. Cook them in oil without adding water in low to medium flame. Flip the brinjal gently when one side gets cooked ( flipping it often ll break the brinjal and the stuffing will come out). When both sides cook evenly put off the flame. Serve it with hot rice !
