Baingan Bharta |Eggplant Bharta || Baingan Ka Dahi Wala Bharta with step-by-step photos and video
Baingan bharta is an easy, simple, delicious, and delightful side dish. It combines roasted eggplant, yogurt, mustard oil, chopped onions, coriander, and green chilies, along with basic seasonings.
The eggplant is roasted on a skillet or grill over low to medium heat, either on charcoal or a stove, and it can also be roasted directly over an open flame, which adds a smoky flavor to the dish.
The term "bharta" (pronounced BHURR-that) refers to dishes where the ingredients are roughly mashed. This dish is a beloved part of the national cuisine throughout all nation-states of the Indian subcontinent, including Pakistan.
Baingan bharta is usually served with dal chawal, and even Rotis. Smokey roasted eggplant is mashed and then spiced with it.
This baingan bharta is a very popular side dish and one of my personal favorites too. In my family prepare bharta in winter with seasonal eggplant because this baingan is seedless and Bhata is the best choice.
