- Here's the recipe, with my notes in parens. South Indian eggplants are quite small, about the size of tomatoes. By the way, Gujeratis also stuff eggplant, potatoes and okra in a similar way, but the stuffing is made of chickpea flour, fried and mixed with spices and a little jaggery.
- 1. To make the stuffing: Roast dry the grated coconut until golden in colour.
- 2. Fry in the 1 tsp oil all the ingredients for the stuffing.
- 3. Add in the roasted coconut and the tamarind and grind to a thick paste, adding very little water.
- 4. To make the poriyal: Quarter the eggplants without cutting them through
- (i.e., make four vertical slits)
- 5. Fill the quartered eggplants with the stuffing and set aside.
- 6. Heat the 3 tblsp oil and add in all the ingredients for tempering. When the mustard seeds splutter, add in the stuffed eggplants, salt and a little water.
- Sprinkle the leftover stuffing, if any, over the vegetable. Cover and simmer on a low heat till the eggplants are tender.
- 7. Remove the lid and fry for a few more min without stirring too much.
- Take care not to break the eggplants.
- 8. Serve warm with rice.
