Baingan Palita / Ringan Palita Recipe – Baingan palita also known as Baingan Katri is a simple dish made from aubergine/egg plant. Before I dig deeper into this recipe, I have a confession to make. This is NOT my recipe. This is my lovely mum-in-laws recipe. She is a great lady and a great cook. A full-time home maker who raised a family with three children, she knows her recipes. Being Gujju she cooks great Gujarati food.

I never had eaten this Baingan Palita called Ringan palita (રીંગણ ના પલીતા) in Gujarati. Baingan palita recipe is a quick and easy recipe. With minimum preparations and cook time, you can make these delicious spicy aubergine slices in no time.

The baingan palita can be served as side dish or main. My mum-in-law was telling me that her neighbor used to serve just ringan palita with chappati. But I think I will make this delicious recipes and serve as side along with some nice Gujarati curry (like rasawala batata) and chappati.

Let us check the quick and easy step by step recipe of baingan ke palita / ringan na palita (baingan katri).

Recipe of Baingan Palita / Ringan Palita (Baingan Katri)

1. To prepare spice mixture we need few Indian spices: turmeric powder (haldi), coriander powder (dhaniya), garam masala, red chili powder, ginger/garlic/red chili paste and salt to taste. Take all the spices in a bowl, add a tablespoon of oil and mix it well. This spicy paste will be used to cook aubergine spices.

2. Wash the aubergine/egg-plant and cut half to quater inch thick slices. Using a fork, prick the egg-plant slices on both sides so that spiced mixture can blend in properly.

3. One by one apply the spice masala paste on each side of baingan slices. My mum-in-law is applying the spice mix here on baingan slices.

4. Heat a pan and put all baingan palita in it. Pour some oil on sides and cook well the baingan palitas on both the sides until the baingan become soft but not too collapsed within. Make sure the pan is hot enough or else the aubergine will boil instead of roast. If you have a griddle pan, use that to grill the aubergine slices. Grilled aubergine tastes great.

  • These look so good. I wish I could grab it from my screen and try it. Got to try. mmmmm love eggplants. You think zucchini will be as good as the eggplant?

    • Hi Marina, Glad you liked it.. Isn't it delicious:)
      I haven't tried zucchini but I guess that might give a twist to its taste. Also try the same curry masala paste on potato slices. They also taste great..
