Comment préparer Bengan Bharta Indian Eggplant

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Prick the eggplant all over with a fork.
Roast the eggplant directly on the oven rack for 45-60 minutes, or until the skin is completely blackened and the flesh is soft. Flip halfway through.
Once cool enough to handle, peel the eggplant and discard the skin.
Place the peeled eggplant in a bowl and roughly mash it with a fork or potato masher.
Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a pan over medium heat. Add 1 medium chopped onion and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
Add 2 minced garlic cloves and 1 inch ginger (minced) and sauté for another minute until fragrant.
Stir in 1.5 tablespoons of your spice blend (see note below) and cook for 30 seconds, stirring constantly, until fragrant.
Add the mashed eggplant to the pan and mix well with the onion, garlic, ginger and spice mixture.
Add 1/4 cup chopped tomatoes, 1/4 cup chopped cilantro, salt, and pepper to taste. Mix well and cook for another 5-10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
Garnish with extra cilantro and serve hot with roti, naan, or rice.
Note: If using traditional spices, substitute with 1 teaspoon of each: cumin powder, coriander powder, turmeric powder, and 1/2 teaspoon of cayenne pepper. Adjust to your preferred spice level.
