Eggplant Chaat

This innovative recipe offers you one more interesting way to enjoy your all-time favourite Eggplant Bhajiya. Bhajiyas made of eggplant have a timeless popularity due to their unique texture, which is crisp outside and succulent inside. You need to slice the brinjals of a medium thickness, neither thick nor thin, coat them with a spicy besan batter, and deep-fry them on a medium flame to get real crisp bhajiyas. While you will be tempted to munch on these bhajiyas straight away, spare a few more minutes to transform them into another marvellous culinary treat. Drizzle some curd and tongue-tickling chutneys on the bhajiyas, sprinkle some crunchy onions and spice powders, and voila, your bhajiyas have turned into a super delicious Eggplant Chaat! Serve it immediately to experience the crispness along with the juicy toppings.

Preparation Time: 25 minutes.
Cooking Time: 25 minutes.
Serves 4.

To be mixed into a smooth batter
½ cup besan (Bengal gram flour)
¼ cup rice flour (chawal ka atta)
½ tsp chilli powder
¼ tsp asafoetida (hing)
Salt to taste
¾ cup water

Other ingredients
40 brinjal (baingan / eggplant) slices
Oil for deep-frying
1 tsp chaat masala
1 cup whisked curds (dahi)
8 tsp green chutney
8 tsp sweet chutney
4 tbsp finely chopped onions
Salt for sprinkling
½ tsp chilli powder for sprinkling

1. Heat the oil in a deep non-stick pan and when hot, dip each brinjal slice in the prepared batter and drop a few brinjal slices at a time into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown, remove and drain them on an absorbent paper.
2. Place the crispy brinjal slices on a big plate, sprinkle 1 tsp of chaat masala over the crispy brinjal slices and toss gently.
3. Take 10 crispy brinjal slices and place them on a serving plate, pour ¼ cup of curds, 2 tsp of green chutney, 2 tsp of sweet chutney and 1 tbsp onions evenly over it and finally sprinkle a little salt and chilli powder evenly over it.
4. Repeat step 3 to make 3 more plates and serve immediately.
