ULOG #9: Operation Egg Plant !!!

Hello fellow steemians,
I hope you are having a good time.
As you can guess from my previous post that I love to cook, but I crave it more when it rains outside.
Today, I will be sharing the recipe and photographs of the most loved dish among Indians popularly known as Baigan Bhartha (Mashed Egg-Plant).
It is basically a vegetarian dish which is prepared by mincing egg-plant over direct fire, which adds smoky flavour to the dish.
Here is the recipe:

1. Chop 2-3 tomatoes, slice 2-3 onions, 150 gm peas, 3 medium sized egg-plants (Baigan), corriander leaves, ginger and garlic if you like them.
   

2. Heat Egg-plant over direct fire or charcoal to add smoky flavour to it.
   

3. Leave them to cool down for a while.
   
   

4. Peel of the outer layer carefully.
   

5. Mash the egg-plant and add corriander leaves.
   

6. Now add 3-4 tablespoon of oil in a frying pan. Heat the oil for a while then add sliced onions to it and heat them till they turn little brown.
   

7. Add turmeric powder a bit, heat it for while and then add chopped tomatoes and heat it for a while on slow flame.
   

8. Now add spices (black pepper, garam masala, corriander powder), mix them. After a while add peas and then add mashed egg-plant. After that add 20ml of water to it and mix them well, heat it on slow flame for 5-8 minutes and your dish is ready.
   

9. Serve it with Raita (Curd mixed with chopped tomatoes and onions, with corriander leaves).
   
   

I hope you guys will try it for sure.
