NOTES
 
  1. Big size aubergine/brinjal/eggplant are suitable for this recipe, which we mainly used for making baingan ka bharta. However different varieties of eggplant can be used, provided they are suitable for slicing and tawa frying.
  2. There’s no need to precook the mustard oil before using. However you can use any other cooking oil as well.
  3. Spice level is high in this recipe but you can balance that by using less chilies.
  4. As it is a lehsuni Baingan Tawa Fry, you can add any number of garlic cloves depending upon your liking for garlic.
  5. This recipe is using very limited ingredients and spices to coat on brinjal slices, but you can also add coconut, sesame seeds, poppy seeds, peanuts along with more basic spices like turmeric and garam masala. Addition of these ingredients will not just lower the spiciness but will also add volume to the spread.
