    Wange Bath or Vangi Bath is a traditional dish from Karnataka. We make this Vangi Bath Recipe with a special spices featuring Brinjal and cooked rice. A delicious mixed rice to make your meal very special!

    Wange is the Konkani word for Brinjal and I used it to make sure I meet my W requirement in the A to Z Everyday Easy Family Dinner Ides. So Brinjal is Wyange or Wange in Konkani, while we call it Vankaya in Telugu or Kathrikai in Tamil. We love Vangi Bath and have so many different recipes that we have been following. Of course, the authentic vangi bath recipe that Amma got from a Kannadiga friend is our favorite.

      I have heard so much of this Bhat, but can't eat due to the brinjal allergy. They were my favourite year's back! Really miss this veggie and it's preparations.
