Konkani Recipe Gulla Bartha | Bharath | Mattu Gulla | Brinjal Recipe | Brinjal Roasted

Mattu Gulla Baarth

Brinjal Charred Dish

Gulla Baarth or Gulla Bharath is made by charring brinjal(usually the green ones) on flame or on charcoal.

The flavour of roasted brinjal enhances the taste. Simple recipe which is my favorite and made when I want homely food. Gulla baarth goes good with rice and dal curry(dalithoy) or with rice porridge.

The name of the dish sounds similar to baigan ka bartha which is made by roasting brinjal, minced with onion, tomato and other spices.

Note: Gulla baarth masala should be mild in color with a hint of spiciness. Adding more onion and coconut oil tastes too good.

Serves- 5 people

Ingredients

1. Brinjal - 1 medium sized (green or eggplant, the purple big ones)
2. Coconut oil- 3 tbsp.
