Hyderabadi Bagara Baingan / Baby Eggplant In Coconut Creamy Gravy.

Hyderabadi Bagara Baingan.. This rich and cream baby eggplant gravy cooked with peanuts, cashew and coconut masala paste, which goes very well with rice, naan, roti and you can make a dry version and serve as a side dish too and this gravy is must in my family when we cook briyani.. This is one gravy which I can eat many times and I won't feel bad. In my childhoods days I use to be not a big fan of eggplants but now it's opposite. My hubby likes the dry version and I like the gravy, so when ever I cook this I have to convince my H to eat the gravy but he only eat's eggplants not a gravy and that's also fine with me because I get to eat the gravy for next day's lunch.


Ingredient's.
6 purple baby eggplants (baingan)
2tbsp cashew, 2tbsp peanuts
2tbsp grated coconut
1 onion (chopped fine)
2 green chilis (whole)
2tsp ginger garlic paste
1/2tsp turmeric, 1tbsp coriander powder, 1tbsp red chilli powder
1 tsp jeera/cumin seeds
2tbsp tamarind paste
Oil and Salt to taste
Freshly chopped coriander leaves for garnish.



Cooking Method.
Dry roast the peanuts and cashew until golden brown. Set aside to cool. Then grind together with the coconut and little water to form a smooth paste.
Slit the eggplants and fry in a 1tsp oil until soft but still holds shape. Drain and set aside. In the same kadai add more oil, add cumin, when they turns brown, add onions and ginger garlic paste fry until golden. Then add the ground paste and fry for a minute.


Then add turmeric powder, chilli powder, coriander powder and salt. Mix well and fry for another minute.
Add the tamarind and 1 cup of water, mix, then add the brinjals and cook for 5-10 mins on a medium heat. Garnish with fresh coriander leaves.

Punjabi Baingan Ka Bharta (Punjabi Style Eggplant)

Punjabi Baingan Bharta is just one of the several versions of eggplant bharta there are in Indian cooking. Bhartas are largely north indian in origin and made from all sorts of vegetables. I can eat this bharta any time of the day with roti's. There is one more version of bharta which i have learn from my SIL , but my hubby prefer this version. This version of baingan ka bharta is really easy to make. Serve it with hot chapatis. Or as a side dish.

1tsp turmeric, 1/2tsp coriander powder, 1/2tsp red chilli powder

2 tbsps finely chopped fresh green coriander
1tsp dry mango powder
Salt and Oil as per req

Cooking Method
Roast on a gas cooktop by just placing the eggplant straight on the burner and keeping the flame on low setting. Keep turning and cooking till all the skin on the eggplant is charred and the inner flesh looks really soft. Once the eggplant is roasted, allow to cool fully and then peel off and discard the charred skin. Once cool, coarsely mash and keep aside for later use. Now set up a pan on medium heat and add the cooking oil. When hot, add the cumin seeds, mustard seeds and curry leafs cook till the spluttering stops. Add the onions and green chili and fry till soft. Add the ginger garlic paste and all the masala powder, except dry mango powder, fry for 1 minute. Add the tomato, stir well and cook for 3-5 minutes. Sprinkle a little water if needed. Now add the eggplant, dry mango powder and salt, mix well. Add the chopped fresh coriander and stir. Cook another minute and turn off the heat. 
Serve hot with Chapatis or Rice.
