Brinjal (Eggplant) Curry

I seldom do Brinjal curry as rest of the family not found of it. I do rice or gravy for chapatti which all of us like. Today being long day in school kids normally have lunch at school and the lunch is just for me. So decided to do the brinjal curry. It is simple and easy recipe. If you use fresh brinjal it is tasty also
