Ingredients
- 1 large Aubergine
- ½ cup Onion
- 1 cup Tomatoes
- 6 cloves Garlic
- 1 Green Chilli
- ¼ teaspoon Red Chilli Powder
- 1.5 tablespoon Oil
- 1 tablespoon chopped Coriander Leaves
- as required salt
Instructions
1
Rinse the baingan (eggplant or aubergine) in aqua.
2
Pat arid with a kitchen napkin.
3
Apply some cooking oil all over and
keep it for roasting on an open flame.
4
You can also barbecue the baingan or bake in the oven.
5
But then you won't get
the barbeque-flavored essence of the baingan.
6
Keep the eggplant turning after a 2 to 3 mins on the flame, so that its evenly
cooked.
7
You could also embed some garlic cloves in the baingan and then bake it.
8
2.
9
bake the aubergine till its completely cooked and yielding.
10
With a knife check the doneness.
11
The knife should slid
easily in aubergines without any resistance.
12
Remove the baingan and immerse in a container of aqua till it cools
down.
13
3.
14
You can also do the dhungar technique of infusing charcoal barbeque-flavored essence in the baingan.
15
This is an optional step.
16
Use natural charcoal for this method.
17
bring to temperature a small piece of charcoal on flame till it becomes smoking scalding and red.
18
4.
19
Make small cuts on the baingan with a knife.
20
Place the red scalding charcoal in the same plate where the roasted
aubergine is kept.
21
mix in a few drops of cooking oil on the charcoal.
22
The charcoal would begin to smoke.
23
5.
24
As soon as smoke begins to release from the charcoal, put a lid on the entire plate tightly with a large container.
25
Allow the
charcoal smoke to get infused for 1 to 2 mins.
26
The more you do, the more barbeque-flavored the baingan bharta will
become.
27
I just keep for a minute.
28
Alternatively, you can also do this dhungar method once the baingan bharta is
cooked, just like the way we do for Dal Tadka.
29
