By choosing perfect sized egg plant and good quality ripened tomatoes; and the combination of these two makes bhartha totally an exquisite dish.
Baingan Bhartha is a wonderful North Indian vegetarian recipe that tantalizes your taste buds. Roasted egg plant is slow cooked with onions and tomatoes. The sweetness of ripened tomatoes is combined with charred flavor of egg plant gives it a very good taste.
