There was once a tiny brinjal plant. With the love and care of it's farmer, it began to grow. And there were soon two brinjals hanging from it. Tiny vegetables they were but very feisty and quarrelsome. They kept competing with one another to see who would be bigger, who would be purple-ier and who would be fatter. And so it went on. Until one day, they were two huge purple brinjals hanging off the plant.
Along came a gentle breeze and the two heavy brinjals fell on the ground with a whoooomp! A little boy came running out of the house to see the two fall. Oh no, he said. Now i won't be able to stuff you and make ennai kathirikai... kathirikai chutney it will have to be. So instead of being whole and stuffed, the brinjals were sauteed and made into chutney!! How they wished they need not have grown so big and fat... they could have retained their shape and become enna kathirikai instead!!
