Almost you can find this yummy Baingan ka Bharta in every region of India. You definitely love this dish with Roti, Paratha, Tortilla etc. I love to have this one with radhuni diy masoor dal (red lentils) and gorom gorom bhath (hot cooked rice). #Aubergine 😊🌻

Steps

20 minutes

1

Clean and pat dry eggplant 🍆,, make slit from 3 sides. If the eggplant looks clean and without worms, you can proceed further. Optionally, rub a bit of oil all over it. Insert ginger juvenile and green chillies.
2

Now roast it on the gas oven or in the air fryer. But what I did as when I roasted it in the kadai, its smoked too much so that I had to cover it also.
3

Tomatoes 🍅 get roasted so early, so I took out and cover eggplant 🍆 again.
4

In the meantime I crushed all the roasted dried red chillies along with tomatoes 🍅 and keep aside.
5

Now Baingan or Aubergine 🍆 is roasted well. Wait for few minutes to cool down. Otherwise our fingers get hurt. Now peel off the burnt skin, properly.
6

Mashed eggplant with tomatoes and chillies. Add salt as required. I like spicy so much that I add 2 more green chillies with chopped coriander leaves 🍃. Add few drops of lemon 🍋 also, that is completely optional.
7

Mix altogether and enjoy. Here I didn't use onion garlic. If you want to add, then add chopped onion when you mix up all the ingredients. But garlic should be used when eggplant 🍆 is roasted.

Have Baingan ka bharta with chapati and paratha. And please let me Know how do you like this recipe. Enjoy 😊🌻
