Next let us fry all the ingredients meant for paste in a pan using 1 tsp oil for 3 minutes & later grind all the ingredients together to make a fine paste ,add little water while grinding (see the ingredients for paste )

Now we have brinjals & paste ready ,fill the slits of the whole brinjals with this paste .

Take a pan ,heat 4 tsp of oil & add mustard seeds ,let it to splutter ,add curry leaves,add onion & fry it for 2 mins,put the brinjals stuffed with paste into the pan ,fry these whole stuffed brinjals till the outer layer is cooked & the brinjals starts to shrink .

Add the remaining paste to the kadai ,add chilli powder for your taste & add water ,close the pan with a lid and allow it to boil for few minutes ,when the brinjals turns soft add tamarind paste or tamarind water .
