Baingan Ka Bharta has two versions. The recipe below is the Punjabi version. I will post the other version later.

500 gms brinjal/eggplant (large)
1 green chilies,chopped
4-5 medium size tomatoes,puree
2 medium size onion,chopped or sliced

6-7 garlic cloves,minced
1/4 cup green peas
1tsp red chili powder
1tsp coriander powder
Salt to taste
3-4tbsp oil
Chopped coriander leaves for garnishing
Method:
Wash the brinjal and pat dry. Roast the brinjal on medium flame on a gas cooktop till the skin has charred completely. You can even roast the brinjal in a grill or oven.
Cool and then peel the skin of the brinjal. Also remove the top part of the brinjal.
Mash the brinjal. Add salt to taste and mix well.
Heat oil in a pan. Add the minced garlic. Saute till it is golden brown.
Add the onions and saute till they are golden brown.
Add the green chilies and ginger. Saute till the raw flavours of ginger are gone.
Add the tomato puree. Let it cook on medium heat till the oil separates. Add red chili powder,peas and coriander powder. Cook for another 2-3minutes.
Now add the mashed brinjal. Mix all the masla with the brinjal.
Lower the heat, cover and cook for 10-15minutes or till the oil separates and brinjal is well cooked.
Garnish with chopped coriander leaves.
Serve Baingan ka bharta with roti or chapatti.
