Masala baigan-  Easy and delicious masala baigan recipe made in pressure cooker

Brinjal/ baigan is among the vegetable which can be made in so many different ways. It is eaten in all parts of India ,every state have there own recipes of making brinjal. Most of the people love brinjal but there are few who dislikes it specially kids avoid eating brinjal.

I love making bharwa baigan but it takes some time to stuff the brinjals and then cooking them in a pan and as my kids don’t like them much so I tried this easy baigan recipe using pressure cooker and it turn out delicious. Now I often makes this masala baigan ,it goes very well with daal rice and paratha and rotis.

You can make so many recipes with brinjal. In Northern India the most popular one is

  • Baigan ka Bharta.
  • Sem Baigan,
  • U.P Style Bharwa Baigan,
  • Choliya aur Baigan ki sabzi,
  • Aloo Baigan ki sabzi
  • Baigan ka chokha
