Ingredients

What you'll need

  • 1 lb baingan bharta
  • 1 tsp yellow onion
  • 1/2 cup garlic-ginger paste
  • 1 tbsp ground cumin
  • 2 tsp turmeric
  • 1 medium garam masala
  • 1 lb fresh cilantro

Method

Step by step

  1. Pat the baingan bharta dry and season it well so it browns instead of steaming.
  2. Get your pan hot and render the aromatics until they smell sweet and toasty.
  3. Return the baingan bharta, add just enough liquid, and simmer until everything is tender.
  4. Taste, brighten with a squeeze of citrus, and plate while it is still hot.
