1 sprig curry leaves (optional)
1-2 tsp chillie powder
1 tsp cumin powder
1 tsp ground mustard
1 tbsp vinegar

Salt Slice the eggplant into 1/4 inch thickness. Cut the slices into 2 inch pieces. Deep fry till golden brown and set a side.
Meanwhile slice the onion, garlic, tomatoes, and green chillie and mix in a bowl with vinegar, chillie powder, cumin powder and salt. Heat 1 tbsp of oil in a skillet. Add the onion mixture and curry leaves. Fry for about 5 minutes.

This goes well with rice. You can substitute the ground mustard with mustard paste.
