How to make Bharva Baingan?

Stuffed Eggplant is prepared in 3 steps.

Preparing Stuffing

Eggplants are delicate in flavor and absorb other flavors very well, I have used different spices with lots of coriander/cilantro and garlic to fill in.

Take Ground peanut and Sesame seeds in a bowl. Add asafetida, Cumin and coriander powder, Chili powder, Salt to taste, Pinch of Turmeric, Garam Masala, Chickpea flour, Grated Garlic and Finely chopped Cilantro/Coriander. Mix it very well.

Stuffing the Eggplants –

Choose small eggplants for this recipe, rinse under cold water and pat them dry. If you like, remove the stem from eggplants and then carefully make a cross in all the eggplants. Do not cut through.

Stuff the slits with the prepared masala mixture. About half of the mixture will be used and rest will be used later.

Cooking the curry –

Heat oil in a pan. Add Stuffed Brinjals/Ringana/Eggplants. Stir it. Close the Pan with the lid. Let it cook until Brinjals/Ringana/Eggplants is tender on a medium to low heat. It will take around 8-10 minutes.

Add tomatoes and remaining masala mixture and add 3 tablespoon water and give it a good mix.

Let it simmer for around 4-5 minutes on medium flame.

The curry is ready. Serve it with Paratha, Bhakhri or Roti.It tastes amazing with Bajri rotla.
