So what’s the big deal about “Baigan Masala”? Isn’t it just another Eggplant recipe?
Well it could be however with a difference. So the story goes back in 2005 when I was newly married and had initial stay at my in-laws family. Now my mom-in-law prepared this Baigan Masala for one the lunches and I those days was averse the thought of having Eggplant but then since it was new environment and I wasn’t sure how to say no so just thought of having some bit and then would pass it to my hubby plate when everyone would be busy with their plates.
But what happened was just opposite, I in fact ended up asking for second helping for such was the taste of this ‘Baigan Masala’. So now I call this ‘Baigan Masala’ a family recipe and for no reason I would say that why you shouldn’t try this easy recipe. Infact it’s easier then preparing so many other stuff which we do in our day to day cooking. The cooking happens on slow and gradually all the spices get blended in the eggplant only to enhance its taste.
So next time when you buy your groceries don’t forget to pick some long eggplants for Baigan Masala.
