Today's post is very special as it is about my traditional feast. This brinjal/ Aubergine dish is really yummy and its totally yummy when you have with traditional Konkani style dal which is called as Dalitoi which I used to cherish since my childhood days ...one of my mom's best recipes which is well known in every konkani household. You can also replace Aubergine with your favorite vegetable like potato ...the masala is simply the best !!!!
