Vaangi Bhath (Eggplant Rice) [Meals] |
About: |
The cuisine of Karnataka has some interesting and unique dishes. To name a few- BisiBele Bath, Saaru, Vaangi Bath, Khara Bath, Akki Roti, Raagi Mudde and upiitu. Though these dishes are made in all parts of India, I still feel these have very unique flavor and taste when eaten in Karnataka. |
Ingredients: |
1 cup rice (uncooked)6 small Brinjal or 1 medium Italian egg plant2 tsp Vaangi bath powderCurry leaves1 tsp lemon juice |
How to prepare? |
Cook the rice with 2 cups of water.Cut the Brinjal 1/2 inch length wise. For reference see the picture below.Take a large non-stick skillet put 3 tsp of oil, few mustard seeds, few curry leaves and then add the Brinjal with some salt. Cook till the Brinjal becomes tender. Now add 1/2 tsp salt, 1 tsp Vaangi bath powder and just cook for a minute and then turn of the stove.After five minutes remove the Brinjal mixture from the skillet and place in a plate. Now in the same skillet put the rice with 3 tbsp of oil, 1 tsp of Vaangi bath powder,1/2 tsp of salt and lemon juice. Gently mix all the ingredients, with out breaking the rice.Once the spices are well incorporated in the rice, add the Brinjal mixture to the rice and mix it well. Taste and re-season accordingly.Its ok to add the oil and Vaangi bath powder directly to the rice. The hot rice takes away the raw smell from the oil and also cooks the spice powder. |
How to Serve? |
Serve it with rice or roti. |
