Hi dassana
I didn’t add water but eggplants were not small instead of medium size.and to cook potato I had to cover the pan and brinjals got mushy.I think next time I would first cook potato and later on add brinjal then they might not get mushy….
fine. avoid covering the pan and then the steam is created from the water content of the veggies and they do become mushy. yes first cook potato till half or 3/4th done and then add the brinjals.
