Vangi bath
Vangi Bath is a vegetarian South Indian dish that originated in Karnataka, Mysuru region, though it is found throughout India. Vangi means brinjal (eggplant) and bhath means rice. Mostly viewed as a dry dish, it is accompanied by Mosaru Bajji or Raita. The flavor is that of coconut and coriander blended well with some mild spices. Traditionally, the dish is prepared using younger, green brinjal, though any variety of brinjal can be used in the creation of the dish, though the final result may differ between the varieties, and some opt out of using brinjal at all. Any of the Brinjal variety would work fine with this dish but the taste will differ. Usually, Fairytale or Barbarella are used. Fairy Tale is a thinner variety of eggplant with strips and has a buttery texture and taste, so it cooks very fast. It has very less seeds so it works very well in this dish.
