Khatte Meethe Baingan- Sweet and sour brinjal curry
Khatte Meethe baingan is a simple to cook curry with minimum ingredients available in every kitchen.
Khatte meethe baigan is my favorite brinjal recipe. It require very less effort and a no fail recipe every time. I make it as a side side to serve with roti and daal - chawal combo. It is also a nice recipe for get together and Celebrations.
How To Make Khaate Meethe Baingan
For making sweet and sour brinjal we need to choose small brinjals. Wash and slice each brinjal into 4 slices but they should remain joined at the back at the stalk side.Now deep fry the brinjal in hot oil till they become 3/4 done. Alternatively you can shallow fry them in less oil OR brush the brinjals with some oil and bake them in an hot oven till they are almost tender, do flip the side once in the oven. Do which ever method suits you but traditionally they are deep fried.
Now add the fried brinjals in a tangy tamarind and jaggery sauce and simmer till done. You can fry the brinjals and make the tangy curry before and just mix both and simmer when you want to serve.
