    Transfer mixture to a grinder jar and grind until smooth paste. Transfer prepared paste to a serving bowl.
  9. step-9
    To prepare the tempering, heat 2-teaspoons oil in the same pan. Add mustard seeds. When they begin to crackle, add urad dal and sauté until dal turns light brown. Add dry red chillies and curry leaves. Sauté for 20-30 seconds.
  10. step-10
    Remove tempering pan from the flame and immediately pour it over prepared chutney paste. Brinjal Chutney is ready for serving. Serve it with plain dosa.
Tips and Variations:
  • You can use 1 teaspoon lemon juice as a substitute of tamarind. Add lemon juice while grinding (in step-8).
  • Choose the brinjals that have less seeds and more flesh (those that look bigger in size but lighter in weight are ideal).
Taste: Soft and smooth taste of mashed brinjal having aroma of sautéed spices
Serving Ideas: Serve Indian brinjal chutney as an accompaniment with rice, curry and roti. It goes well with set dosa or uttapam too.

I made a few changes but basically this is an excellent recipe. For one large eggplant I also used two serrano chile peppers and 400g of fresh tomatoes. I used cashew nuts instead of peanuts. Otherwise followed the recipe except for double garlic and ginger. Delicious.

Response: Thank you Edward for trying the recipe and writing the feedback. Glad to hear that it turned well.
