Vangibath

Vangi Bath (Kannada: ವಾಂಗಿ ಬಾತ್) is a vegetarian South Indian dish[1] that originated in Karnataka, Mysuru region,[2] though it is found throughout India.

Fairy Tale is a thinner variety of eggplant with strips and has a buttery texture and taste, so it cooks very fast.

[5] Vangi Bhath is a dish also prepared especially during festivals or family get-togethers, feasts, etc.

Normally a good quantity of vangi bhath masala is made in advance and stored at least for about 2 weeks and used again or use it with other vegetables.
