About Baigan Bhartha

Eggplant is indigenous to the Indian subcontinent from where it spread to South-East and Eastern Asia, and then to the Mediterranean and Southern Europe. Baingan translates into the eggplant, while, bharta meaning mashed or mixed consistency.

Baigan bhartha is often made with smaller or mid-sized Italian eggplants, instead of the American Globe Eggplant, or it can be made with the sweeter versions. It is liked for the delightful and magical garlicky smoky flavours merged in herbs and tomato sauce.

In rural Indian homes, the Eggplant is roasted over charcoal and raw onion, green chillies and mustard oil is added to the smokey tender Eggplant to get a pungent aromatic version, often served with cornmeal roti ( or wheat roti), buttermilk, salad and pickles, or with a lentil soup and rice.
