Potato eggplant dry/ Aloo Baigan ki sabji /Potato brinjal curry

Writer's picture: Brinda GuptaBrinda Gupta

Eggplants and potatoes taste great together. Onion tomato paste adds that special flavour to the dish that you will start licking your fingers. This is one of the most cooked vegetable's eaten in North India.. The curry used in this vegetable is a fine blend of onion tomato paste and rich Indian spices. In the drive to eat variety food on most days we sometimes forget the daily simple dishes we grew up eating with. Our mothers just knew how to bring the perfect taste to simple food dishes.. Somedays it is just great to enjoy these simple side-dishes and be grateful to our loved ones who introduced the first taste to us.

How to eat it?

This is best enjoyed as a #sidedish with #rice or #roti (Indian flatbread)

I love to eat it with my husband 😆
