Brinjal Chutney/Andhra Vankaya Pachadi/Vankaya Chutney

Hi..hope everyone are doing good…and welcome to a fresh week…This time am back with a chutney recipe that calls for onion and brinjal..Don’t give me a weird look for posting this .I know this is pretty simple and may not deserve a place here..But you know I have searched net for this recipe and finally took my aunt’s version.So I hope this may help someone who might be in search of vankaya pahadi or brinjal chutney 🙂
What you need:

Brinjal 250 gms
Oil – 1 tbsp
Onion-1/2
Jeera – 2tbsp
Green chilli slit – 5
Tamarind – small lemon size

For Seasoning:

Mustard- 1 tbsp
Split urad dal – 1 tbsp
Dried red chilli- 1
curry leaves – 1 spring
Jeera – 1/ 2 tbsp
Oil – 1 tbsp

How I Made:

Cut brinjal into thin pieces and onion as well.
Heat oil in a pan and fry green chillis
Add onions and brinjal pieces.
Cover with a lid and cook for 10 minutes or until they become soft or mashy.
Tranfer this mixture into a blender and add jeera,tamarind and salt.
Blend it into a coarse paste and keep it aside.
Heat some oil in a kadai and add mustard,jeera and split urad dal and red chilli
When they crackle add the curry leaves and fry for few seconds.
Pout this mixture on the chutney or pachadi.
