Brinjal & Potato Gothsu

Serves: 5
Cooking Time: 20 min

Vanakkam!! Potato dish after ages, eh? :P

B&P G is a tangy, saucy dish from Tamil Nadu, and can be wolfed down either with chapatis or steamed rice.

You'll need:

* 250gm brinjals
* 1 big potato
* 4 small tomatoes
* 2 onions
* 5 green chilies
* 2 tbsp cooking oil
* 1 tsp salt
* 1 tsp turmeric powder
* 1 tsp mustard seeds
* curry leaves
* coriander leaves

Here's how:

1. First of, chop the tomatoes, onions & chilies. Then peel the potato & dice it into small cubes. Followed by dicing the brinjals into small pieces.

2. Then, heat the oil in a pressure cooker & add the mustard seeds. Once you see it sputtering, add the onions & chilies, and saute.

3. Now, add the brinjals, potato, tomatoes, curry leaves, salt & turmeric powder, followed by 1.5 cups of water. Then, shut the lid of the cooker and let it cook for 8 min.

4. Once the time is up, mash the mixture in the cooker with a ladle or spatula, into a thick consistency.

5. Finally, sprinkle coriander leaves & serve :)
