Put the cumin seed, mustard seed, fenugreek seed and sesame seeds in oil to slightly fry
As soon as the cumin seed turn pinkish, pour the oil and these spices in the curd
Add sugar and mix well to dissolve sugar
Mix well, and then sprinkle dry-roasted cumin powder. If you have fresh cumin seed, then it can be roasted slightly and crushed, maybe by a rolling pin
Mix well, and add sprinkle red chilli powder to taste

Now place the brinjal pieces in the curd mixure, so as to dip them
Serve cooled with roti
