Baingan Ki Lonje is a traditional recipe from the state of Uttar Pradesh.
The eggplants are coated with a spicy and aromatic onion paste and then slow cooked to impart all its flavours into the dish. The secret lies in the freshly made spice mix that is added to the onion masala which is then coated over the eggplants.
