I have always admired my mother in law's elder sister and she was one of the most celebrated grandmother in our household.
I have fond memories of Kamalu Patti as we all called her. Some of her recipes are so unique and she used to take lot of efforts to make a simple dish tastes amazing.
Last week her daughter was with us and I was more than happy to learn more dishes from her.
She was gracious enough to share her recipe and I have shared her recipe on my blog, here is the image of sweet and sour brinjal straight from her kitchen
Sweet & sour kathrikkai(brinjal)
1. Grind in mixie some roasted sesame & groundnuts, sambar powder, garam masala powder, garlic pieces, haldi powder, salt.
2. Now slit brinjal, stuff this powder and cook brinjal in very heavy duty pan with lid after porichukotting/seasoning (tadka) & adding water. ( Takes only few minutes if pan is heavy & shallow ).
3. Mix jaggery powder in tamarind water & add this sweet & sour sauce to brinjal, bring to boil & switch off.
( Can add pepper powder & red chilli powder from top. Gives nice flavor).
