- Heat Eggplant on gas stove Tandoor, brings better flavor to Eggplant. By this, upper crust of Eggplant is only burnt and can be peeled with hands.
- Burning upper layer if eggplant is important, as it removes bitter taste and harmful bacteria from foods.
- Heating it directly on Gas stove, may burn inner layer of foods. Also, destroys nutrition value of foods.
- Direct heat on Gas stove, adds black carcinogens to eggplant pulp. That is not easy to extract. And eating it is not good as well.
- We prefer blending Eggplant with Tomato puree. And avoid adding onions to it. By this it avoids digestion issues.
- Also, blending Eggplant with tomatoes keep food recipe simple and enhances flavor of Eggplant added in it.
- Adding sesame to recipe helps promote weight loss.
- Avoid adding lot of oils to a recipe. Dipping it in red-chili powder can cause inflammation and make Spices become more dominant. It also spoils taste of eggplant.
