BAINGAN KACHRI (FLAVOURED EGGPLANT SLICES) Recipe | | Starters Recipe by reluctant_chef |
| | INGREDIENTS | Very easy, non-fried side dish
works well as a starter too
INGREDIENTS:
Baingan (Eggplant)
Dhaniya jeera powder
Red chilli powder
Haldi powder
Rock salt (optional)
Amchur or chaat masala
Salt
Oil | | METHOD | Wash the eggplant, chop off the top and make thin slices.
In a bowl, mix 3 tbsps of dhaniya jeera powder, with a proportionate amount of red chilli powder, haldi powder, amchur or chaat masala, rock salt and salt. Your kachri masala is ready.
Then take a flat non-stick pan and grease it with oil. Place slices of eggplant and cover each of them with the masala. Add a few drops of oil over each slice. Cover the pan and let it cook on a slow flame for 10 min. Then flip each one to cool on the other side. Remember the thinner slices would have browned very easily. Cover and cool for another 5 minutes. Transfer them to a serving dish.
Enjoy these baingan kachrin as a starter or a side dish!!
(Tip: Keep the eggplant slices thin and the kachri masala layer also thin. I had put too much masala in the first round. So I fixed it in the second round. Remember also that eggplant slices will brown but never get crispy. They always stay soft
You could also add besan and water to the mixture, coat the slices in it, and fry them into eggplant bhajiyas.
Also once you slice the eggplant, you can also sprinkle salt and let it rest for 15 min. This removes excess water and bitterness. But eggplants are quite mild these days, so salting can be skipped.)
