@apu – Thanks for the tip about Amritsar. Try the oven method…it’s definitely easier than stovetop but you don’t get the same smoky flavor (which I actually don’t miss). My family is Telegu but settled in Tamil Nadu so it must be from of those two states. I’ll check with my dad and get back to you.

@vaishali – we make the yogurt version too. do you serve it chilled?

@alka – would love to see your chutney version…I’ve never had eggplant chutney!

@raj – I think my recipe index here on hungrydesi is slowly becoming a list of childhood favorites 🙂 which I guess is why I started cooking in the first place. can’t exactly ask daddy to overnight lemon pappu and potatoes to me. though I think he would do it.

Baingan bharta is like one of my absolutely favourite dishes, though I don’t make it that often due to the effort involved. (I smoke the baingan on a gas fire). I had no idea that there was even a South Indian version! Any idea which state this comes from?

As an aside, if you or any of your readers ever visit Amritsar, please have the baingan bharta there at this totally functional sort of place called bharawan da dhaba – I visited recently and it took me some time to get back from heaven 🙂

It sounds amazing. My family would make a Maharashtrian version with the eggplant roasted over an open gas flame. It was mild-tasting, with yogurt, but delicious. I love the use of sambar powder and curry leaves in yours which must add a burst of flavor. Yum.

The eggplant with tamarind looks mouth watering. The photo that you have posted has captured it so well. Thanks for sharing this recipe.

The whole, cooked eggplant looks like it just went through the lacquer portion of a paint job at Earl Scheib. In other words, it looks amazing.

We should make a list of all the foods from our childhood and how we remember them.
