About Bharta
Bharta is a flavorful, mashed dish originating from Indian cuisine, commonly made using eggplant, tomatoes, onions, and an array of spices. The most popular variety is Baingan Bharta, where roasted eggplant is blended with sautéed aromatics like garlic, ginger, chilies, and turmeric. This dish is typically vegan and rich in antioxidants, dietary fiber, and phytonutrients, making it beneficial for digestion and overall health. Eggplant, the star ingredient, is low in calories and serves as a good source of vitamins B and K. The inclusion of spices such as turmeric adds anti-inflammatory properties, while tomatoes provide vitamin C and lycopene. However, Bharta is often cooked with generous amounts of oil, which can increase caloric density. To keep it heart-healthy, opt for minimal oil or healthier alternatives like olive oil. Typically served with flatbread or rice, Bharta makes for a nutritious and satisfying meal.
