Add salt, black pepper powder and mix well and saute for 5 more minutes.

Taste Note: Tastes GREAT
Serves: 4

Note: My timing was way off this time, so the eggplants are all mushed, changed the timings, next time it should come out good.
Note: I think preparing this sabzi with 12 Indian eggplants and 1 potato and making tadka dal as another side would be great. It would be much easier to prepare with 12 indian eggplant, it was difficult to mix 25 eggplants, the pan was so full.
