Eggplant |
Most eggplant has a mild flavor, and when raw has a spongy texture, so eggplant can absorb many different types of flavors.
When cooked, it acquires an almost-silky texture, and is great for dips as well as thickening soups.

HEALTH TIPS |
- Eggplant has been found to be especially useful in the treatment of colon cancer due to the high amount of fiber found within eggplant.
- Eggplant can also be eaten after being roasted directly on fire. Just peel off the skin, mash it and add some salt in it for flavor and eat it. It will help cure phlegm, congestion and reduce the formation of gas.
- In order to increase appetite and digestion, take soup made of mashed Eggplant and tomato, along with some salt and pepper.
- In case you are unable to fall asleep easily, eat a soft brinjal (along with some honey) after baking it directly over fire. If taken regularly, it may also cure insomnia.
