This is one of my favorite subji to have with any/all kinds of roti/rotti but like to have it mostly along with whole wheat flour Phulka. For me, both together makes an awesome combination.
Though prepared this subji many a times before, could never take the stepwise pics, that’s why could not post it here on my blog. But today I could do so and that’s why I’m here to share the same with you all.
I know that some people chargrill even onion and tomato along with brinjal/eggplant. But at my place I roast only brinjal, but I would definitely want to try in that method also and will do so asap.
Again this is a very simple and easy to make subji and can be made easily at home with all the readily available ingredients
