Baby Eggplant Stir-Fry / Kathirikkai Poriyal
Advertisement
When it comes to eggplant, may be Baby Eggplant or Aubergine, I love it a lot. This time when I am to my hometown, got white eggplants and was about to prepare a dish with it. Upto me this not a traditional or authentic tamilian recipe, I have induced few of the spices that loved to the core. Also the dish came very well with wonderful aroma, attractive color and delicious taste. Give a try, I am sure that everyone will love it.
