Aloo Baingan


This is a simple dry vegetable curry that can be eaten with rotis. I have used very light spices to coat potatoes and eggplant. 

Ingredients
potatoes - 2 medium sized
Baingan(eggplant) (small) - 6-7 nos
Yellow Onion - 1
Coriander Cumin powder - 1 tsp
Red chilli powder to taste
Amchur Powder -1 tsp
Turmeric Powder - 1/4 tsp
Salt to taste
Oil for stir frying
Coriander leaves for garnish

Method
Peel the potatoes. Cut into cubes. Cook them in the microwave in salt water. Take it out when it is 3/4 the cooked. It will take approximately 15 minutes.
Cut baingan into cubes.  
Cut the onion. In a pan add 1 tsp oil and fry the onion till golden brown and keep it aside in a plate.
In the same pan add 2 tsp oil. Add the baingan, salt, amchur powder and fry till it is 3/4 cooked in medium flame. Add 1 tsp oil, cooked potatoes,  fried onion, turmeric powder, coriander cumin powder and chilli powder cook in low flame till the vegetables are cooked. Garnish with coriander leaves.
