Baigan choka is a vegetarian Trini dip that is made with eggplant as the key ingredient. In order to prepare the dip, the eggplants are traditionally roasted over an open flame, then mashed and combined with garlic, hot chili peppers, onions, and olive oil or vegetable oil.

Some variations also use roasted tomatoes, while some do not. The creamy dip is then seasoned with salt and pepper before being served with parathas or any other types of flatbread.
