BAINGAN-E-BAHAR

Versatile & Delectable

Brinjal is one of the most popular vegetables in Indian cooking and has been known to us for a very long time. It is one of those ingredients that is easy to cook, work with, and adapt to our day-to-day cooking in a number of ways. Brinjal, as we know, has various names across the globe, like aubergine and eggplant.

Brinjal is available in several sizes and colors as well from the bright green to the shades of purple it has a vibrant appearance when it comes to attracting us at the vegetable vendors or markets. The beneficial properties of brinjal also make it a common choice by most of us to make it a part of our recipes and delicacies from the yummiest roasted brinjal bhartha to the middle-eastern baba ganoush dip and from the masala baingan to the baingan aloo ki subzi the list goes on and on.

To me, brinjal is one of the most interesting ingredients when it comes to fusion cooking and mix-and-match creative recipes. Some of my all-time favourites are Indo-Filipinian brinjal with Toyo chicken, Indo-Sri Lanka curry leaf fish with baby brinjal, and Indo-Thai baingan ka saalan with lemon grass and coconut—it’s just out of this world!
