Spices : 1 & 1/2 teaspoon mild kashmiri chilli powder @gorimasculinary, 1 teaspoon paprika powder, 2 teaspoon achaar (pickle) masala @gorimasculinary, 1 teaspoon dhana Jeeru (Cumin) powder @gorimasculinary, 1/4 teaspoon fine black pepper, 1/4 teaspoon tumeric (arad (Turmeric)) powder, 1 teaspoon fine salt or to taste (I used Himalayan salt),1 & 1/2 teaspoon crushed garlic @aminaswondespice.

METHOD

Heat oil in a pot on low flame. Add Jeeru (Cumin) seeds & when seeds start to splatter add the onion, chilli & curry leaves. Sautè for 3 to 4 minutes or until onions start to change colour. Add the tomatoes & spices. Mix well, cover with lid & cook for 5 minutes on low flame. Then add brinjal & 1 cup hot water, stir & cook on low flame for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. I added 1/2cup water while cooking so that it doesn't dry up or scorch. Then add in the Saikav Gram Dhal @saikavfoods. Carefully stir, cover with lid & simmer for 5 minutes on low flame. Garnish with chopped dhania (coriander). Serve with roti's or basmati rice. Enjoy😋❤ #cooking_made_simple_
