Tips (ಸಲಹೆ):
* Applying little oil to the Eggplant before burning will enhance the flavour
* Pricking the Eggplant before burning will reduce the chance of bursting
* If the Raitha is sour, add required amount of Milk

* ಸುಡುವ ಮೊದಲು ಬದನೆಕಾಯಿಗೆ ಸ್ವಲ್ಪ ಎಣ್ಣೆ ಹಚ್ಚುವುದರಿಂದ ಪರಿಮಳ ಹೆಚ್ಚಾಗುತ್ತದೆ
* ಬದನೆಕಾಯಿಯನ್ನು ಚೂರಿಯಿಂದ ಇರಿಯುವುದರಿಂದ ಸುಡುವಾಗ ಸಿಡಿಯುವುದಿಲ್ಲ
* ಮೊಸರು ಹುಳಿ ಇದ್ದರೆ, ಬೇಕಿದ್ದಷ್ಟು ಹಾಲು ಹಾಕಿ
