A simple brinjal fry recipe with step by step pic and a short YouTube video for the Monday morning. It can be easily prepared in minutes and always a winning pair with curd rice, lemon rice, tomato rasam, drumstick sambar etc…I have made this ennai kathirikkai fry recipe a million times but didn’t share it in my blog. The first thought that was striking me was, the Kathrikkai fry is so easy and I was reluctant to make it as a post. But I think it will be helpful for beginners in the kitchen and bachelors.
