Notes

  1. Stuff the masala mix into the brinjal (eggplant) to make it flavorful for the sabzi.
  2. Do not add too much water while pressure cooking the sabzi.
  3. Cook on high flame for 2 whistles.
  4. Adding chavanu to the masala enhances the taste of the sabzi. You can use any farsan as a substitute.
  5. Cook the sabzi on a low flame for 5-7 minutes to let the gravy flavors absorb into it.
