Now add the red chilly powder,turmeric powder and the ground paste.Mix it well,fry it for couple of minutes.Add the tamarind water and a cup of water.


Add the salt,let the mixture gets cooked well in a medium flame for 10-12 minutes or till the raw smell goes off.Finally sprinkle the coriander leaves and put off the flame.


Serve it after an hour to get the flavors incorporate well.



Enjoy..............................................

  • Here I used a small size ball of tamarind,if you are using tamarind paste use around a tbs.
  • Use small round brinjals to get evenly cooked.
  • The amount of red chilly powder given is for perfect spicy,you can alter it according to your preference.
