Hyderabadi Bagara Baingan

Few days back, i got a packet of purple small brinjals from Indian grocery, i wanted to make them something different, quite delicious but not as usual tamarind based gravy or simple sitr fry, while going through google, i got this droolworthy Bagara Baingan from Nag's space..Her picture itself tempted me a lot and i tried immediately her version of bagar baingan and served this delicious dish along with simple vegetable briyani for our saturday lunch..Thanks to Nags for sharing this yummy dish and we loved it..This bagara baingan goes to Priya's & Aipi's Bookmarked Recipes..
