Let’s take the gram flour in a mixing bowl. Add chopped coriander, green chilli, onion, tomato, coriander powder, red chilli powder, turmeric powder, crushed carom seeds and mix it well. Add little water at a time and make a batter and keep it aside. Consistency should be like cheela.
Now take the egg plant and cut it into the thick ring slices and put the slices in the water otherwise they go black. Use the sharp spoon to remove the centre part of the slices as shown in the pictures.
Now chopped the removed centre part, put them (75%) into the gram flour batter, add salt and mix it well. Now heat the pan on low flame, pour 1 Tbsp oil and place the eggplant ring on the pan.
Now fill the centre with the prepared gram flour batter. Press them with the spoon. Now cover them with a lid and cook it for few minutes. Flame should be medium low. Flip them after few minutes. Also pour little oil on the sides and apply some salt on the edges. Again cover it and cook it for few more minutes. Cook them until they turn golden brown and crisp. Serve them hot.
