As the world knows I love brinjal(most of us like right?),this is also one of MY favorite poriyal made with brinjal! But since my H does not like brinjal(like most of the guys),I almost don’t make this,may be this is the fourth time or so ,I am making after marriage :(
Yesterday I made specially for me and my blog :) So here’s a EASY recipe,could be made within 15 minutes!
