brinjal chutney recipe | vankaya pachadi | badanekayi chutney | kathirikai pachadi with step by step photo and video recipe. chutney or condiments are an essential part of indian cuisine and are made for various purpose. moreover, each region and state has its own way of preparing the chutney which differs with the way it is prepared and the set of ingredients. one such unique and flavoured chutney recipe is brinjal chutney recipe or vankaya pachadi known for its roasted and charcoaly flavour.

i have shared many recipes with brinjal or eggplant including the bharta recipe, but each recipe is unique in its own way. it can be stuffed, diced, roasted, mixed with other vegetables and the options are thousands. yet it has to offer different flavour and taste with a different recipe. this pachadi or chutney is south indian contribution to the eggplant recipes. the process is very similar to the north indian bharta recipe, but has its own uniqueness. for instance, in this recipe, i have roasted onion, tomatoes, garlic, chillies together to get the flavour from each which is later mashed to a rough paste. also, the spices added are unique to this chutney and may not be a good option for the sabzi recipe. hence i would recommend trying this recipe once and compare it to with bharta recipe.

in addition, i would also like to add some additional tips, suggestions and variations to brinjal chutney recipe. firstly, i would heavily recommend using large purple eggplant for this recipe and avoid small green or white and purple coloured eggplant. the large one can be easily roasted without damaging the eggplant and then can be easily mashed. secondly, adding onion is completely optional but i personally recommend adding it. particularly add baby onions for that extra flavour and taste. lastly, you can easily prepare this and store it in the refrigerator and use it as a pickle. it should easily last long for a couple of days without expiry.
