Cut Brinjals and Tomatoes in small pieces and fry them in a pan (with lid) with very little oil. Keep aside and let cool.

Put this brinjal-tomato mix into a grinder, add green chillies, jeera, garlic, tamarind and grind to a smooth paste (add water it needed).

Heat oil in the same pan, add cumin seeds, jeera, chana dal, urad dal, curry leaves and fry them. Mix this with the brinjal-tomato paste.

Sprinkle some chopped cilantro on the top of the chutney.

Serve with hot rice or yogurt rice.
