Wish you all a very "Happy New Year 2020" to all friends and family. Today's recipe is from Uttar Pradesh cuisine - Baingan Ki Lonje. It is UP style brinjal curry which is very delectable with its unique flavours and taste. It is spicy, aromatic with spices added in it and sour from lemon juice added. I really loved this variety brinjal recipe as it is easy to prepare and different brinjal recipe i ever tasted. Onions are fried by adding sugar till they are caramelized and they are grinded with other fried spices. We cut brinjal from middle along with stem then apply onion masala and fry it both sides, today i fried brinjals first then applied masala paste and fried again. This makes brinjal cook well from stem. Finally we add lemon juice on fried brinjal. This adds very unique and awesome taste.

Tips
** I fried brinjal's twice first without adding masala, later after applying. This made outer portion of brinjal (skin )crisp.
** Adding lemon juice gives very taste to curry.
** Keep brinjal in water after cutting so that it won't change its color.
