Vazhuthananga Theeyal (Eggplant / Brinjal in roasted Coconut Gravy)

I found this pale green brinjal (like the one that we get in Kerala) in the grocery store here and grabbed one bagful for a theeyal. Just like any other theeyal, brinjals are cooked in tamarind juice along with ground roasted coconut and spices for making this delicious side dish.
