Did you know? This Maharashtrian stir-fry pairs smoky brinjal with crisp capsicum in a peanut-spice crust. The "vaangi" (brinjal) is cooked until creamy, contrasting with crunchy peanuts. Tempered with mustard and curry leaves, it's a monsoon favorite. Some versions add jaggery for sweet-spicy balance. A lunchbox favorite for its no-reheat convenience.
