Beguni a.k.a aubergine pakora

Indian Aubergine Fritters a.k.a. Beguni recipe is adapted from my mum’s kitchen and watching her make this dish all those years growing up. Maa, I hope you are proud of me today! 🙂

I will give you 3 reasons why you should totally make this dish:

  • It is vegan including the dip and the sauce
  • Crunchy and a super easy dish to be assembled
  • You need a substitute to those fries made of potatoes, don’t you?
