বেগুনি…Fried Brinjal Besan Mixture
This is a starter item commonly observed in Banquets, this is prepared after making slices of Brinjal and dipping those slices in Besan(Gram Flour) mixture and then fried in oil, i mean hot oil. Obviously salt is added in the Besan mixture otherwise…no taste.

Favourite fritters of Bengal N Bihar
Yah, that’s very much true.
Yummm! Would love to try these out.
Love these. We have them in Ramadhan usually.
Glad to know you liked it.
Is this the famous Beguni Bhaja? Looks delicious!
Yes it is.
Yummy! I love fried brinjals:)
Good to know.
Hey Jyotirmoy , is it called Baingan ( Begun ) Bhaja in Banglaa ? . We Maharashtrians call it Vaangyaachi Bhajee and marinate the Brinjal slices with Ginger Garlic paste before dipping it in Besan batter. Why is it in rectangular shape instead of oval ? #MyFriendAlexa #SuatawdeReads
Actually Begun Bhaja is a different item, In Begun Bhaja the Brinjals are sliced and fried in oil, besan mixture is not used, Beguni is same as Vaangyaachi Bhajee where Besan micture is used.
Generally its sliced in rectangular shape while preparing for any banquette, i think its time effective.
Thanks for sharing info about Beguni there.
I love beguni. Who does not? Be it fried egg plant fitter or a shirt the color of brinjal. In all form I love it.

Nice dish. You have good knowledge of cooking.

Baigan Pakoda, I love it. Added green chillies in the batter make it super delicious.
Next time will follow your suggestion while making it.
You call it Begun Baja and we Punjabis make pakoras of anything. My favourite is spinach and potato.

Give it a try,its really delicious.
It is raining outside as I read this post! How I wish I could gorge on some beguni, peyaji and telebhaja and enjoy this day!
That’s the way we prefer to enjoy rain. Thanks for dropping by.
We call it Begain pakoda. Anything dipped in besan and fried becomes Pakoda for us. 🙂
Yah,almost same here…anything dipped in besan and fried becomes pakoda but some items have different names also,like beguni,there is Peyanji…made by onion following the same process.
My husband loves this… on a holiday this is mandatory to be in the lunch….
Good to know.
This is my favourite too. We do with potato also ridge gourd.
Thanks for sharing.
I love Beguni. An all time favourite
Same here.
Brinjal dipped in gram flour makes an ideal combination. We make a whole batch of pakodas when it rains. It’s a perfect accompaniment to ginger tea.
Thanks for sharing here in Bengal this food is common with puffed rice,tea and coffee.
Just what you need with hot khichudi on a rainy day!
Totally agree with you. Delicious combination.
Fried brinjal! Haven’t eaten it ever. Will try. But only Salt is added in besan? No chilli, Ajwain, amchur etc?
Try it,its really delicious and yes you can add other ingredients to make it spicy.
This looks so yummy. I am going to try this recipe soon.
Good to know you liked it, share your experience.
