Baingan Ka Raita is a delicious, gluten-free Indian raita recipe. If you are bored of Baingan Bharta then you must try this Baingan Ka Raita Recipe. It has the earthiness of the roasted eggplant and the sweetness of curd – perfect to serve with biryani and pulao.

This Baingan Ka Raita Recipe is one of my recent discoveries and I am totally loving it. It is a fuss-free, easy, and unique raita recipe.

With this raita recipe in hand, you can include eggplant in your everyday meal in a delightful manner.

Raita is one side-dish that adds loads of charm to the everyday Indian meal. It is a perfect condiment to compliment the spicy Indian curries and rice dishes.

Baingan Raita Recipe

The good news is – this Baingan Ka Raita can be the uber-cool dip with chips for the Friday night party. It is inspired by the Mediterranean roasted eggplant dip – baba ganoush.

And I cannot tell you how insanely delicious this yogurt sauce is? It’s – creamy, savory, smokey, altogether satisfying and healthy too. 

The flavor of roasted garlic on top makes this baingan raita more delicious. You can skip adding garlic if you are not a fan of the flavor. But I personally highly recommend it.
