Aubergine spread cooked directly over hot embers - a hot and smokey traditional Indian recipe.  Baingan Bartha 4 eggplants 2-4 garlic cloves 2-3 scallions 1 walnut sized ginger root 1tbsp whole coriander seeds 1tbsp whole cumin seeds 1 dried chili 5-8 black peppercorns Mustard seeds oil  Start a large fire with hardwood or quality charcoal. No briquettes and no softwood as they would impart a bad taste to the food. When the wood has turned to glowing embers, after about 30 minutes or so, carefully lay the eggplants to rest, one by one, on this bed of embers. Leave them until they are soft all over and the skin is shrivelled.   Remove the eggplants from the fire, brush off any ashes and return to the kitchen.  Carve the eggplants open carefully so as not to introduce any ashes. Miraculous! The vegetable has slept for 30 minutes on hot embers and yet it is still juicy inside.  Carefully scrape off the flesh from the eggplant with a spoon, avoiding any black area. Burnt flesh is not the problem but ashes are. They are quite caustic.  Seasoning is what makes this aubergine spread an Indian baingan bartha. Use whole spices and dry roast them in a hot frying pan. Do not add any fat and remove only when the cumin seeds start to smoke.  Grind to a powder in a mortar or with an electric spice grinder or manual pepper mill.   Mash ginger and garlic to a paste and finely chop the scallions.  Fry in a tablespoon ghee or oil until soft.  Add the eggplant pulp and combine.   Add the spices. Now for our most dreadful ingredient - mustard seeds oil. A very pungent taste indeed, more akin to vinegar than oil. Use only the finest oil and make sure it is not rancid or you'll ruin your fine efforts.  Add drop by drop and taste regularly until the flavor balance satisfies you.  Serve with naan as a starter, a side dish or even a light meal. On the picture are afghan snowshoe naans I baked in my tandoor.
