Brinjal pepper kuzhambu is one of my most favorite among the brinjal recipes. When my mom makes this one, both me and my bro used to have it twice. It’s so flavourful, spicy and different gravy that you must try and see. I took a while to get a hold on this recipe to balance the spice level, tanginess in this recipe. Now a days, I do make it right and enjoy it. This is the second time I am making in past 2 weeks. Since Vj doesn’t eat brinjal, he eats this gravy and loves it too. And all the brinjals in the gravy, for me, only me. Today I made this along with mix veg kootu which is another one of my mom’s speciality for us and Aj had thogaiyal, rasam and bajji along with the kootu. Kuzhambu is too hot for him so he doesn’t like it. Check out the recipes
