Kathirikai Vathal – The Traditional Sun-Dried Brinjal Delight 
Kathirikai Vathal, also known as Brinjal Vathal, is a time-honored South Indian delicacy made by sun-drying sliced brinjals to preserve their rich flavor and texture. This traditional method enhances the natural taste of brinjals while ensuring a long shelf life, making it a perfect pantry staple for adding depth and authenticity to various dishes

Widely used in South Indian cuisine, Kathirikai Vathal is a key ingredient in vathal kulambu, a flavorful tamarind-based gravy loved for its bold and tangy taste. When added to gravies and curries, it absorbs the spices beautifully, offering a delightful chewiness that enhances the dish. Brinjal Vathal can also be lightly fried and used as a topping for curd rice, sambar, and vegetable stir-fries, adding an extra layer of taste and texture.

Whether you are preparing a traditional meal or experimenting with South Indian flavors, Kathirikai Vathal is a must-have ingredient that brings the essence of homemade cooking to every dish. Enjoy the taste of authentic, sun-dried goodness in every bite! ✨
