MASALA BRINJAL (MASALE WALE BAIGAN)

I love brinjal a lot but a year back I developed some allergy that’s why staying away from this veggie. Anyway I cook for my family. Recently I cooked this version of brinjal which has liked by everyone at my home and I thought when everyone has appreciated it must be very tasty.
