Description

This Kashmiri Stir-Fry is a flavorful and quick side dish that captures the essence of North Indian cuisine with a modern twist. The dish combines tender eggplant and crisp broccoli, tossed in a blend of warming spices like asafetida, cayenne, and paprika. The eggplant absorbs the rich, smoky flavors while the broccoli adds a fresh, crunchy texture. It is an excellent option for a healthy, vegan-friendly meal that is both satisfying and easy to prepare. Perfect for serving over steamed rice or with naan bread, this stir-fry brings a burst of color and taste to any dinner table. Ideal for weeknight dinners or when you want a hearty vegetable dish that feels special without requiring extensive prep time.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Cut the eggplant into long, thin slices and cut the broccoli into bite-size florets.
  2. Heat the vegetable oil in a wok or large frying pan over high heat.
  3. Add the eggplant slices to the hot pan and fry until lightly browned on both sides.
  4. Remove the browned eggplant from the pan and place it on a paper towel to drain excess oil.
  5. In the same pan, add the broccoli florets and fry for 3 minutes until slightly tender.
  6. Add the salt and asafetida to the broccoli and continue frying, stirring frequently.
  7. Return the cooked eggplant to the pan and add the cayenne pepper and paprika.
  8. Stir everything together until the vegetables are evenly coated with the spices.
  9. Pour in 2 to 4 tablespoons of water, depending on desired moisture level.
  10. Lower the heat, cover the pan, and cook for 5 to 7 minutes until the broccoli is tender and the flavors are well combined.
  11. Serve hot over steamed rice.
