Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 450F. Pierce the eggplant a couple of times with a fork. Place it on a baking sheet and roast it, whole for 20 minutes, until soft. Remove the eggplant from the oven and let cool slightly. Once it is cool to the touch, remove the skin. (It will be quite easy to peel off with your fingers.) Place the eggplant flesh on a plate and roughly mash it with a fork or potato masher.
  2. Heat the oil in a large, cast iron skillet. Add minced onion and saute over medium-high heat until onions are golden, 3-4 minutes. Add garlic and green chilies (if using). Saute for 1 minute.
  3. Add the tomatoes and seasonings. Cook for 3-5 minutes, until fragrant, adding water if necessary to keep the mixture smooth.
  4. Mix in the mashed eggplant and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat through.
  5. Serve the Bharta warm with roti and/or rice.
