    1

    To begin making the Spicy Coconut Peanut Stuffed Baby Brinjal recipe, make 2 way slit in the eggplants (2 vertical slit perpendicular to each other. Do not make the slit through till the end) and keep aside.

    2

    Let us prepare the stuffing for the eggplants now. For this, dry roast peanuts and dried coconut to a light golden brown. Let it cool down.

    3

    Now, using a food processor/chopper, grind these along with cumin seeds, coriander powder, garam masala, salt and red chili powder into a homogeneous mix. Add in the tomato paste and chopped coriander. Combine.

    4

    Stuff the eggplants with the stuffing well and keep them in the fridge for 10 minutes so that the stuffing gets a little solid and does not ooze out when stir fried.

    5

    Now, take a non stick pan and in it add in the mustard/vegetable oil.

    6

    Heat it up and add in the mustard seeds. Let the seeds splutter.

    7

    Now add in the sliced garlic and roast till lightly golden.

    8

    Now, add in the stuffed eggplants and toss around the tempering. Add in the required amount of salt.

    9

    Let it cook on medium high for the next 15 to 20 minutes till the eggplants start to cook and get tender.

    10

    Now, place a lid on the pan and cook on simmer for another 5 to 7 minutes. After 5 to 7 minutes, they are done and ready to serve.
