Kathirikai thogayal (Brinjal thick chutney)

Kathirikai thogayal (Brinjal chutney) - preparation time 15 mins
My favourite recipe. Mom used to make this thogayal bit spicy. She won't grind in mixer. She will use ammi to make this tasty thogayal.

Ingredients:-
Brinjal - chopped 150 gms
Red chili - 3 (roasted in oil and powdered)
Tamarind paste - ½ tsp
Salt - to taste
Gingelly oil - 4 tbsp
Water - little to sprinkle
Mustard seed - ¼ tsp
Urad dhal - 1 tbsp


Preparation method:-
Fry the brinjal with oil and salt in a tawa. Sprinkle little water to cook.
In a mixer add the cooked brinjal, tamarind paste, chili powder. Grind to paste using whipper
button.
In a tawa add oil, mustard, urad dhal and roast till dhal is golden brown.
Add this to brinjal chutney or kathirikai thogayal. You can take this spicy chutney with idli, dosa or along with plain
rice and gingelly oil.
