Grind the peanuts, cumin seeds, garlic and ginger together coarsely and keep aside.
If the egg plant is big half f it will do.  Cut the brinjal into small cubes.
Slice onion thinly. Heat oil in a kadai saute the onion slices till it changes the colour. Then add the ground peanut mixture to this and saute it for one minute. Then add the brinjal pieces to this, add salt, turmeric pdr and chilli pdr, mix well. Sprinkle  a handful of water and close the kadai and cook it till the brinjal is soft and the masala covers the brinjal pieces, add curry leaves.  Its a good side dish for rice or chappathi.
