My mom made baingan bharta and then told me to skip it saying brinjal is not good for pregnant women. Is there any truth to this or is it just an old saying? i love brinjal so kinda sad.
Haan you can eat brinjal cooked properly, in normal amounts it is fine. I ate baingan ka bharta many times. Just dont have it raw or in huge quantities.
Beta in our home elders said thoda kam baingan in pregnancy, just out of old caution. But cooked well in small amount it is okay. Nothing to panic about.
