I like these little baby eggplants my mother used to stuff with chutney and tie with a string.
The Indian word for Eggplant is also Ravaiya, Vengnu, Aubergine or Brinjal.
Ingredients
8-10 small ravaiya (baby eggplant)
1 cup coconut milk, extracted from 1/2 coconut
50 grams tamarind soaked in warm water and pulp strained off
Oil for shallow frying
For the Chutney grind together
3 onions
2 inch piece ginger
6-8 cloves garlic
6-8 dried red chilies
Method
Wash the raviaya and make 4 slits, while keeping the stem point intact fill the raviaya with the ground mixture of spices and salt.
Heat oil in a langree (broad based pan) add ravaiya and the left over ground mixture.
Lower heat, and add the coconut milk and tamarind mixture till ravaiya are cooked.
Tip: to keep the stuffing in place please tie the ravaiya with a thin string.

Love these delicious & tender eggplants!
Thanks 🙂
For some reason I don’t cook eggplants much. Stuffing them with a spicy chutney sounds like a wonderful and flavorful idea. Thanks for bringing your stuffed eggplants to Fiesta Friday.
