Baingan bharta is made at home and I really want to eat it. Someone told me brinjal should be avoided when pregnant, so now I am confused. Did you eat brinjal normally?
Beta brinjal is fine in normal cooked food. Old people sometimes say eat less of it but that's mostly just talk, a regular sabzi is okay. Just dont overdo any one vegetable. Cook it well and enjoy your bharta.
Brinjal is fine, I ate baingan bharta through both pregnancies. Just cook it properly and dont eat it raw or half done. In normal amounts as part of your sabzi it's totally okay, no need to cut it out.
We eat brinjal a lot at home and I had it all through pregnancy with no problem. My mother in law said keep it moderate, which is just good sense for any veg. Cook it nicely. If you ever feel any reaction, then mention to your doctor, but normally it's safe.
Cooked brinjal in normal quantity is considered safe. There are old beliefs about avoiding it but nothing solid behind that for a regular diet. If you have any specific allergy or your doctor advised a particular food plan, follow that, otherwise eat it cooked and you're good.
