Delicious Dahi Baingan is a popular Veg Indian recipe made with eggplant, yogurt, and aromatic Indian spices. Ideal curry recipe for lunch or dinner usually served with roti/chapathi. Very Delicious yet easy to make with all at home available ingredients.

As it is summer, eggplant is found in abundance in vegetable markets. ANy size eggplant would do but small eggplants are better for making Dahi Baingan as it looks pretty as well as cooked easily.

I am a food lover and that is what inspired me to start this blog. I learned cooking due to my love of food. Dahi Baingan is among my favs. My little princess calls it lollipops and they are small and have a stick to hold.

I would suggest trying this recipe once. The person who doesn’t love eggplant will also fall in love with it.
