Aloo baigan ki subzi- A North Indian style dry curry of potatoes and aubergine

This North Indian style Aloo baigan is a simple and delicious dry dish,Potatos are very well paired with soft and melt in mouth brinjals and tomato and make’s it a great combo,the main flavour of this dish comes from the flavour of its tempering.I have used mustard oil,but you can substitute it with any cooking oil of your choice.
