Punjabi cuisine is famous for its rich and delectable dishes filled with flavors and aroma. Baingan ka Bharta is one such gem from this classic range and makes a scrumptious meal with hot phulkas and ghee smeared tandoori rotis.
The typical method of making this lip smacking dish involves the cooking of brinjals (Aubergine/ Eggplant) in tandoor (Clay oven) till the skin turns black and charred, thus endowing a beautiful smoky flavor. It is then peeled off and combined with rich spices, herbs and mustard oil.
However, this method of cooking is not possible now days as we do not owe tandoors or charcoal burners at our homes. Hence, we would be doing it on gas stove over direct flame. Here, we would also give you the method of cooking the brinjal in oven. Over to the recipe !
