Baingan Bharta or fire roasted Eggplants to give it a smoky effect is a simple side dish that is the best on any day. Not only is it delicious, it is absolutely a bliss. Grilling the Eggplants on charcoal or direct fire infuses the dish with a smoky flavour. A must have in this Season when fresh and healthy Vegetables are available aplenty in the markets throughout the Country. Therefore I too have made it and relished it with my folks so many times with a different variation each time. This one here is the most commonly made dish.

It goes well with both Rotis and Rice at mealtimes on any day. It can be a good choice for Lunchbox ideas too. It's a super comfort food by all means. A wholesome and a perfect accompaniment for meals. This is so inviting. A famous Vegetable dish that is loved by every Indian.

Enjoy Cooking with Zeen!

1

Rub some oil on the eggplants all over along with tomatoes and chillies too. Roast on a low heat directly on the gas. Keep turning them at regular intervals so that they get roasted well on all the sides. After done, allow them to cool.
2

Peel the skin of the vegetables. Mash them and do not forget to mix in the finely chopped chillies. They are optional. You might skip them and add just the red chilli powder.
3

Heat oil and saute finely chopped garlic and the onions. Now add in the roasted and mashed vegetables. Also stir in the powdered spices.
4

Also stir in the powdered spices. Mix well and cook just for about 2-3 minutes until it's nicely heated and done. Garnish with chopped coriander leaves and it's perfectly done.
5

Serve at mealtimes alongside steaming hot plate of simple boiled Rice. Enjoy!

Homemaker by choice and a passionate cook by heart. An aspiring cook who actually never knew anything about Cooking until i became a mother myself.With Motherhood came the responsibilities as well and this was the turning point in my life.I started to learn the ABC's of cooking, taking help from my mother and my MIL. And time just flew. I spread my wings higher and higher. With my love for excellence and innovation, i stepped into a world of homecooks with my exposure to Cookpad one fine day on the social media. And there was no looking back since then and i have not only shared recipes here on this wonderful platform but also have made some lovely friends as well. Today iam successful because of my hard work, dedication and loads of good wishes of my family and my kids in particular.
