My Moms Gutti Vankaya Curry Recipe (Stuffed Brinjal Curry)

Today I am sharing my mom’s Gutti Vankaya curry recipe (Stuffed brinjal) recipe. It’s one of my favorite curries she makes. It is a specialty curry from the state of Andhra Pradesh in India where small-sized brinjals (Gutti Vankaya) are stuffed with nutty, tangy, and spicy masala powder and cooked in low-medium flame to perfection. This curry is a labor of love, it’s truly delicious, and trust me you can’t stop with one!

My mom’s recipe follows a slightly different approach to the traditional way of cooking this curry. She shallow fries the brinjals first before stuffing them, that way the brinjals are cooked perfectly, they are tender and taste delicious. I have tried the traditional approach of stuffing first and then frying them, I always end up with a few undercooked brinjals. Also, we love making extra stuffing and adding to the pan at the end so it’s more of curry than a fry. You can alter the recipe to have less or more stuffing,
