ಬದನೇಕಾಯಿ ಎಣ್ಣೆಗಾಯಿ ಪಲ್ಯ | ರೀತಿ 2 |

Earlier I have posted the recipe of brinjal/badanekayi ennegayi palya/curry in a slightly different way, ie using different set of ingredients

And today also I’m here to share the recipe of brinjal/badanekayi ennegayi palya/curry recipe using some more additional ingredients and in slightly different method, which makes the palya/curry taste different and more yummy.

As I have mentioned in my earlier post, nobody likes to eat whole brinjal at my place, so this time also I have sliced the brinjal and made this curry.

Both versions of this badanekayi ennegayi palya recipes turns out to be superb and tastes finger licking, I insist you all to try both the versions. Here I have used purple colored round brinjal whereas earlier I had put green long brinjal.
