Whether you spread it or dip into it, you will be wanting more of this delectable smoky, creamy eggplant puree.
Most of us are accustomed to baigan/eggplant choka or baba ganoush. However, when this fire-roasted vegetable is pureed smooth with a few ingredients, the texture is light and fluffy, almost ethereal. You will marvel at it and wonder – is this eggplant/baigan? This spread/dip is one of my star dishes when entertaining and serving small bites. People always ask what it is and are surprised when I tell them it is eggplant. While I make baigan choka often and usually have roasted eggplant stored, I have not made this spread/dip in ages. I decided to make some for the holiday weekend, just for me, for when I feel like a snack rather than a meal.
