    What is gutti vankaya?

    Gutti vankaya is a traditional and delicious Andhra style (South India) of making the stuffed baby eggplant curry. It can be made with so many types of stuffings but the main ingredient is small or baby eggplants.

    This recipe is one of the easy stuffed eggplant recipes that is made with chickpea flour/besan, desiccated coconut and spices.

    How long can I store it?

    It stays fresh for 1-2 days if stored properly in the refrigerator.

    Serving suggestions:

    It tastes great when served hot with plain white rice or basmati rice.

    Tips:

    Use small or baby brinjals or eggplants.

    Always use a wok or wide pan to ensure even roasting.

    Add more or less chilli powder according to your taste.

    Step by step preparation:

    • To make the stuffing, combine the chickpea flour, coconut, cumin seeds, salt and red chilli powder in a bowl. Add one tablespoon of oil to it and mix until well combined.
    • Wash the brinjals and make a plus (+) slit on the bottom of the brinjal. Keep one end intact.
    • Now stuff the brinjals with prepared chickpea flour mixture and keep them aside.
    • Heat remaining oil in a pan and slowly drop the stuffed brinjals into the oil. Toss to coat them with oil.
    • Cover with a lid and cook on a low – medium flame.
    • Keep checking in between and tun the brinjals until they are evenly cooked.
    • When they are soft, turn off the heat.
    • Serve hot with steamed rice and ghee.
