About Bengan ka bharta

Baingan Ka Bharta is a flavorful Indian dish originating from North India, widely loved for its smoky aroma and rich taste. It is made by roasting eggplant until soft, then mashing it and blending it with a mix of sautéed onions, tomatoes, garlic, ginger, and traditional spices like cumin, turmeric, and chili powder. The roasted eggplant lends a distinct smoky flavor that pairs well with warm bread like roti or naan. As a vegetable-based dish, Baingan Ka Bharta is naturally low in calories and rich in fiber, promoting digestion. Eggplant is a good source of vitamins such as B6 and antioxidants, which help fight free radicals. The use of fresh herbs and spices adds anti-inflammatory and immunity-boosting properties. However, the amount of oil used during preparation can vary, affecting its calorie count. Opting for minimal oil can make this dish a heart-healthy addition to a balanced diet.
