vangaibathi recepie is good,but the brinjal which is to be friedhas to be stuffed with the same vangibath power with little salt added to it,will taste more good.
susheelasivakumarsaid...........wow the recepie seems to be good,but if the brinjal is stuffed with the same powder with little salt to taste it would be more spicy and special.
