Somehow things suddenly seem too hectic to handle. Though all the posts were ready, I just couldn't find time to edit and write. I made a simple Parsi Lunch on Sunday for the Vegetarians. I warned Hubby dear ahead that it was going to be Parsi lunch, while I made Biryani for the rest at home.
Surprising even with the non veg Biryani going on, I was able to prepare these simple Parsi Dishes for the Vegetarians at home. I enjoyed all the dishes, why Hubby dear wasn't so taken in by this fried brinjal slices. I realised that one has to enjoy brinjals or maybe I need to deep roast these slices for his taste.
I had planned on another Dal pori for the third day, it didn't happen. So I am splitting the posts. I am hoping I will make the Dal Pori that I originally planned. The recipe is adapted from this post. These fried brinjal slices uses something called as the Parsi style Sambar powder. I was so surprised to read about the Parsi Style spice powder. I found this interesting post comparing the different spice powders like the Parsi Sambhar masala to South Indian type sambhar masala along with Dhansak masala.

How to make Tareli Vengna Ni pori

Mark each slice on both sides slightly, with knife,
Soak in water until all done as brinjal tends to blacken as soon as its cut.
