Baingan bharta or Baingan ka bhurtha (Mashed Eggplant) is a popular dish in Northern and Southern parts of India. It is a vegetarian that comprises bhurtha, which is minced baingan (eggplant) that is grilled over charcoal or direct fire, to infuse the dish with a smoky flavor. However, I have modified this process to cook it in the crock-pot and the consistency came out to be just fine! Traditionally, the dish is often eaten with an Indian flatbread (specifically roti or paratha) and is also served with rice and/or raita, a yogurt salad.
Note: The cooking time mentioned in the video recipe depends on the size of the crock-pot and the wattage. Bigger crock-pots cook faster. Please use discretion.
