Brinjal recipes

Brinjal or Baigan (in hindi) is also popularly called as eggplant, aubergine. Brinjal (Solanum melongena), is an easily cultivated plant belonging to the family Solanaceae. Its fruit is high in nutrition and commonly consumed as a vegetable. The fruit and other parts of the plant are used in traditional medicine. It is native to Nepal, India, Bangladesh, Pakistan and Sri Lanka.

The vegetable is fleshy and has meaty texture. The vegetable is capable of absorbing large amounts of cooking fats and sauces, allowing for very rich dishes, but the salting process will reduce the amount of oil absorbed. The vegetable flesh is smooth; as related to the tomato, the numerous seeds are soft and edible along with the rest of the fruit. The thin skin is also edible, so peeling is not required.

Cooking of Baigan bharta can be in many variations as per their regions and liking. It may also be roasted in its skin until charred, so that the pulp can be removed and blended with other ingredients such as lemon, tahini, and garlic, as in the Middle Eastern dish baba ghanoush and the similar Greek dish melitzanosalata.
