    Biryani Brinjal Curry

    This is one recipe which was requested by lots of my viewers. And it is the best sidedish for dum biryani or any biryani. There is no perfect sidedish for biryani than this and some onion raita. I made this and served it with my chicken dum biryani and everyone loved it.

    This is a no coconut version and all the thickness comes from the masala which we make..So please take sometime to cook down the onions and tomatoes till it is all mushy, so it melts into the curry and give the required thickness. There are so many variations of this curry will share all of them very soon..

      This recipe is brilliant. I would say, this is the closest ever taste to the lip-smacking brinjal gravy they make in Chennai roadside biriyani kadai; and even better too! Thanks a ton for sharing such a wonderful recipe! 🙂

      Made this tonight because I miss Indian food. It turned out great! I followed the recipe exactly, except I used powdered spices since I don’t like them whole. It was quick, easy and flavors were spot on. Thank you so much for sharing.

      Hi,

      It says Garam masala twice! So do I put the whole Garam Masala at the beginning as well as the powder later on? Just a tad bit confused. Thanks!
