Recipe for Bengan Bharta Raita

Ingredients

  • 1 aubergine/ eggplant (large size)
  • 1 red onion chopped
  • 1 tomato chopped
  • FOR RAITA
  • ½ kg full cream yogurt
  • 1 small green chilli
  • A handful of fresh coriander
  • A handful of fresh mint leaves
  • Some salt to season

Cooking Directions

In a mortar and pestle, crush green chilli, coriander and mint. Add yogurt and mix. Season with some salt.

Grill aubergine on naked fire until its skin starts blistering and it gets extra soft and watery from inside. (use tongs to change sides)

Remove from flame and put it on a plate. Now holding one side with tongs start scraping the burnt skin with a sharp knife. Take off all the skin.

Mash the pulp in mortar and pestle and add it to the raita we made.
