Roasted egg plant also called BENGAN KA BHARTA in urdu is one of the favorite dish on a hot summer day. Growing eggplant is still on a goal list so i used a store bought. wash and cut in half longwise. Brush olive oil all over. Place on a baking dish with some garlic cloves on the bottom. No need to cover place in already hot 400 degree oven and bake for 40 minutes. Take it out let it cool for little bit. Scrape all the flesh out and discard the skin. Mix with diced onions, tomatoes, green chili peppers, banana peppers, and some chopped cilantro. I added couple of chopped Kurry leaves. Mix all ingredients well. At the end add salt, red chili pepper, coriander powder, and crushed peppers. Best to serve at room temperature with fresh Nans |

Sharing a wealth of homegrown veggies is the best thing. As much i love growing garlic far more i like to make friends. my friends invited me to celebrate my sucess as newly elected board member and i thought to keep this bond more strong i should make something for them using my garlic crop.

Doesn't matter how i select green pepper plants from the nursery no one pepper looks the same as another. I think its not because of the origin of the plant but the amount of sunlight they get.
Well no matter what color and shape i get they all are flavorful. I love to fill them with cooked ground beef and make them in the home grown tomatoe sauce. |
