Crispy Stuffed Eggplant Recipe
Step 1: Prepare the lentil mixture
- Soak red lentils in water. Grind them into a paste using a stone grinder or mortar and pestle.
- Grind garlic cloves, ginger, and green chilies separately.
- Combine the lentil paste with the ginger-garlic-chili paste in a bowl.
- Add chopped onions, salt, and turmeric powder to the mixture and mix well.
Step 2: Prepare the eggplants
- Make vertical cuts in the small eggplants so they open like a fan.
- Season the eggplants with salt, turmeric, and red chili powder.
Step 3: Stuff the eggplants
- Fill the cuts in each eggplant with the prepared lentil paste mixture.
Step 4: Fry the eggplants
- Heat oil in a pan and shallow fry the stuffed eggplants until golden brown and crispy on both sides.
