Thank you Manjula, I have made Baingan Bharta before and it was okay, but, I now? see why it was just okay. The layering in of the seasoning (especially the garam masala) makes all the difference. You videos and website are wonderful, and so helpful. When I became a vegetarian/vegan, I worried about flavors and tastes, your site shows, in clear and easy steps, how to regain the flavor, while still enjoying a compassionate and healthy meal.

Hi, Manjulaji, I ...
Hi, Manjulaji, I put the eggplant as instructed in the mw for 8 min, after about 5? min I heard this big explosion and saw that eggplant had exploded all over inside the microwave, leaving a big mess so it would be advisable like TooLooseLeTrek suggested to pierce the eggplant before cooking it in mw. Other than this mess, the Bharta came out pretty good, I enjoy all your dishes. Keep up the good work. Thanks.

the first spices ...
the first spices you add to the oil are cumin seeds and ? what is esepatita??
