Remove the Eggplant pieces from water and roll it over the masala and keep it aside.
Put 2-3 tsp oil in a Tava and spread it over the tava evenly. Heat the tava and place the brinjal pieces as shown in the picture below.
Turn both the sides of brinjal frequently, apply little oil and cook them for about 8-10 mins in medium/low flame.

Tips (ಸಲಹೆ):
* Putting the sliced Eggplant in Buttermilk (or Tamarind) water will reduce the bitterness of it and retains it's color
* Adding Salt to this water will enhance the taste
* As it takes time in roasting, multiple Tavas can be used
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
* ಬದನೆಕಾಯಿಯನ್ನು ಮಜ್ಜಿಗೆ (ಅಥವಾ ಹುಣಸೆ ಹುಳಿ) ನೀರಿನಲ್ಲಿ ಹಾಕುವುದರಿಂದ ಅದರ ಕಹಿ ಕಡಿಮೆ ಆಗುತ್ತದೆ ಮತ್ತು ಬಣ್ಣ ಹಾಗೆ ಉಳಿಯುತ್ತದೆ
* ಮಜ್ಜಿಗೆ ನೀರಿಗೆ ಉಪ್ಪು ಹಾಕುವುದರಿಂದ ಬದನೆಕಾಯಿಯ ರುಚಿ ಹೆಚ್ಚಾಗುತ್ತದೆ
* ಇದು ಸಣ್ಣ ಉರಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ಬೇಯಲು ಸಮಯ ಬೇಕಾಗುವುದರಿಂದ 2-3 ಕಾವಲಿಗೆಯನ್ನು ಒಟ್ಟಿಗೆ ಬಳಸಬಹುದು
