Brinjal Masala Kulambhu/Kathirikkai Masala Kulambhu



We make masala kulambhu slightly in a different way as I have shared it already here.But today's version  is my  friends recipe which I had noted down after tasting it couple of times.Whenever I get tender and small brinjals/eggplants make this kulambhu for weekend lunch.This kulambhu tastes very well with the white rice and pappad,but I paired up with spinach kottu and potato fry.This recipe is off CCC event started by Srivalli and Dish it out event-Tomato and garlic at my space started by Vardhini.Lets move on to the recipe............

  • Use small round brinjals to get evenly cooked.
  • The amount of red chilly powder given is for perfect spicy,you can alter it according to your preference.
