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 moisture.
2
Pat dehydrated with a kitchen napkin.
3
Apply some margarine all over and
keep it for roasting on an open flame.
4
You can also broil the baingan or char in the oven.
5
But then you won't get
the charred 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 char it.
8
2.
9
char the aubergine till its completely cooked and succulent.
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 moisture till it cools
down.
13
3.
14
You can also do the dhungar technique of infusing charcoal charred essence in the baingan.
15
This is an optional step.
16
Use natural charcoal for this method.
17
toasty a small piece of charcoal on flame till it becomes smoking fiery and red.
18
4.
19
Make small cuts on the baingan with a knife.
20
Place the red fiery charcoal in the same plate where the roasted
aubergine is kept.
21
transfer in a few drops of margarine 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 charred 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.
