Tips, food safety & substitutions
Roast the brinjal until completely soft inside and check for seeds before mashing; fry the eggs until the whites are fully set. Contains egg. If roasting over a flame is not possible, oven-roast at 200C for 30 minutes. Peas can be stirred into the bharta for extra texture.
