How to stop sliced brinjals from turning black

Brinjals turn blackish, the moment you slice them; this is due to the natural process of oxidisation. Here’s how you can retain the original colour for your brinjal dish.

Step
1

Always wash brinjals before slicing.
Step
2

Add a tbsp. of milk to a bowl of water.
Step
3

Add brinjal slices to the milk bowl, immediately after cutting.
Step
4

Make sure the brinjal is completely submerged. Milk will help prevent the oxidisation process.
Step
5

When ready to cook, take out the brinjal pieces, flatten them between your palms to get rid of excess moisture, and cook with them immediately.
