Brinjal saute (Chinese)


Brinjal Manchurian is something my mom-in-law makes often. Well, this is not that exactly coz Ive not batter fried the Brinjal. This is a healthy variation of the batter fried version.

Brinjal : 5 quartered (the small variety)
Fresh Red/Green Chillies; 2 chopped
Garlic: 4 cloves chopped
Ginger: 1 tsp chopped
Onion: 1/4 cup diced
Oil: 3 tbsp
Salt: as required

Soya Sauce: 1tsp
Tomato Sauce: 1tbsp
Chilly sauce: 1 tbsp
Cornflour: 1 tbsp
Cold Water: 1/4 cup



Mix the corn flour in the cold water and add all the sauces and keep aside.
Heat oil in a kadai and add the brinjal and fry for a few seconds.
Now add the onion, chilly, garlic and ginger and saute for a few minutes.
Add the cornflour mixed sauces and stir everything.
Serve warm with Fried rice or Noodles.
