Baingan Bharta Recipe / Baingan ka Bharta Recipe


I have been thinking of making this dish for quite a while. Whenever i go to supermarkets i buy a eggplant to make this, but i end up making this brinjal fry or this simple brinjal roast. Last week i bought this eggplant and immediately got into action and made it, i loved it so much and it turned out brilliant..
