A cooking recipe

I would like to share few personal things in this post. Everyone needs relaxation in this fast moving world. And everyone might have their own hobbies during their rest period. A hobby is an activity or interest that is undertaken for pleasure or relaxation, often in one's spare time. My favorite hobbies are cooking, playing chess, cleaning, listening to light melodies, watching TV, reading books etc. I am thinking to write some of these in forecoming posts. Let’s start with cooking.
Cooking is an art. We all have different tastes. There are vast varieties from sweets to spicy. As a tamilan, I too like spicy foods very much. And I like to serve my family with different varieties. So I am explaining one of those. A recipe for Brinjal Rice.
Requirement:
Brinjal/Eggplant = 1/2 kg
small onions = 200g
curry leaves = small qtty
Soombu=1 tbl spoon
pattai,krambu-2
Garlic-ginger paste 1 tbl spoon
chilly powder 1/2 tbl spoon
coriander leaves=small qtty
cooked ponni rice= 1/2 kg
cooking oil = small qtty
Preparation
Cut the brinjal/eggplant into small pieces. Put some oil in a kadai.After it gets heated, put sombu,pattai,krambu,curryleaves,onion. Later put some garlic-ginger paste into it. Then add finely chopped brinjal/eggplant into it. It should mixed well with masala. Add chilly powder and coriander leaves into it. The brinjal should get deeply fried. If u want, u can add some more oil. So now the gravy is ready u can add cooked rice with this and add some salt for taste. Its now ready and u can serve this with raita. It’s very tasty, even children will like more. It’s a great treat for spicy lovers. Try it & write comments. I will try to give more different recepies later.
