Baingan Bharta is a traditional Indian dish made with roasted eggplant (baingan) that is mashed and cooked with aromatic spices. The eggplant is charred over an open flame or roasted in an oven until the skin is blackened and the flesh becomes soft and tender. The charred eggplant is then peeled and mashed, and sautéed with onions, tomatoes, garlic, ginger, and a blend of spices such as cumin, coriander, turmeric, and garam masala. This results in a smoky and flavorful dish with a creamy texture. Baingan Bharta is often enjoyed with roti, naan, or rice and is a popular choice among vegetarians and eggplant lovers. Its rich and hearty flavors make it a comforting and satisfying dish.
