    Well, you should definitely try the Greek version. We use a lot more garlic, onions and herbs in the sauce (thyme and parsley mostly, not basil), feta cheese between layers and feta + some semi hard cheese on top. Another nice twist is to add fried/roasted sweet pepper or zucchini slice layers, maybe drizzled with some balsamic vinegar. Eggplant is a great base for mixed veggie dishes!

    Just finished eating this for dinner. So Good and *easy*. I pan fried the eggplant but next time will roast in the oven as I didn't blot the oil as well as I should have. Very good recipe. Thanks!❤

    Most relaxing cooking channel award :) Even with something as fussy as this recipe, which involves, frying, roasting and sauce making combined, it still retains an uncomplicated straight approach which is stress-free and confidence inspiring. I guess it's both the manner of delivery (neither overly casual nor experts-only level) and a healthy dose of just the essential information that probably does it. I even enjoy watching recipes that I know perfectly well - they're still fun to watch.

      @@SipandFeast I think you're on a good track. There's a lot of cooking channels out there but yours has something that sets it apart: I think in a lot of other channels you can always detect a hint of showing off - or some kind of a performance aspect, and you feel as if you're going to be tested at the end. Nothing wrong with that but sometimes you just want to watch something without this. Keep going! :)

    Absolutely perfect tutorial for making this dish. I like eggplant parmigiana any way its made but this version is delicious and maybe a little healthier. Also, happy to hear mozzarella pronounced (I won't say correctly but) the way I say it except where I come from the last syllable is always dropped. I grew up in an Italian household but with a non Italian mother who was the second best Italian cook in the family after my grandmother. Thanks for your great video. I'm making this today.

    This was exactly the recipe I was looking for. Not to be sacrilegious but I think I'm going to add summer squash and zucchini with the eggplant and cooked your same way to see how it turns out since I never like to waste any excess squash since I bought too much for a previous dish I had made. Definitely see the value of waiting the extra time to let the salt draw out the water from the eggplant. Thanks again for all your great advice!

    • @SipandFeast
      @SipandFeast  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks! I think the summer squash and zucchini would be great. I actually made a video for zucchini parmigiana without the breading so it's quite similar to this one: th-cam.com/video/A2Ff_NQxPy8/w-d-xo.html

    I made this today, first try, and it was spectacular. Thank you so much for this recipe! You have very easy to follow instructions and my eggplant roasted great. I should've used smaller sheet trays so they could roast on the same rack, but rookie error. I'm glad you said to use weights on the eggplant slices because four other recipes I found don't mention that and not doing that would've been awful.

    I've been following you for months now, here & on Facebook & how I came upon your channel was I was doing a search for eggplant parm without breadcrumbs. My fav Italian restaurant near me, makes it without breadcrumbs and I didn't know how he did it until you. But back when I did my search it was winter, & nothing was fresh, so I knew I had to wait until veggies started to grow. I bought some home grown eggplant the other day, made it yesterday to have today, made your quick marinara sauce & OMG, my husband said this was better than our favorite restaurant. So I just want to say thank you for making me a better cook, and giving us easy to follow recipes. I have made so many of your meat free recipes, and this one might be my favorite

    New to your channel. I knew your accent is Queens/Long Island! I live in the Hudson Valley, but my accent is pure Bronx! Anyway, just spent two summers in Italy (I’m retired), and learned that Italian and Italian-American are almost two different cuisines. The meals we think of as Italian are virtually unknown in Italy. So I’ve been trying to cook more in the genuine Italian style, as well as using ceramic dishes I picked up around the country. As an example, I ordered veal scallopini with carciofi giudesca (not sure of spelling, Jewish artichoke). I also asked for a side of pasta. They were really confused - pasta?? Then they laughed, “Americans!” Anyway, I like your recipes.

    I love your recipes and vids and have made many of your recipes and all with great success. My concern with this recipe is that once the eggplant has been fried, it seemed excessive to then bake for 50-60 min. It was definitely too much for the way mine turned out, but perhaps I'm missing something? Please direct me cuz it came out as mush and without any 'tooth'. Not sure where I went wrong?

  • @BOBW805

      Thank you Bob! Eggplant can be hard to find. I know this because I lived in Minnesota for 3 years. I've been finding the smaller "Italian" eggplants are much better lately. They come in a special plastic bag and have no seeds. The larger American style eggplants can often be hit or miss.

    Try my version I get lots of compliments, it's also the real Italian way: peel skin off, cut as you did yours, salt to remove water, dip in flour, then in egg and fry in Canola, or veg oil real quick to lightly get color then lay in paper towel for every layer while frying, then layer in pan, add shredded mozzarella, some pecorino cheese then sauce not too much it;s about the eggplant not the sauce, and bake.

    An interesting note, according to Frank Prisinzano (of Frank Restaurant, Supper and Lil’ Frankie’s on the LES in NYC), it’s unnecessary to salt/weep the eggplant beforehand, particularly when making this dish. And that eggplant is not bitter. It sure cuts out a lot of time and effort. Any thoughts on this?

    • @SipandFeast
      @SipandFeast  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I don't always salt it, especially with smaller eggplants, but I do find if you have the time it will only improve the process. A lot of water is removed before frying. It's not really done to remove the bitterness, it's more about the water removal.

    Loved this video and your recipe for everything EXCEPT keeping the peelings on. If your vegetables are not organic, the peel includes and soaks up whatever pesticide toxins the grower was using. This also includes potatoes, unfortunately. You have to peel them all completely. Or, buy organic, which is the best choice of all. Otherwise, you are eating the lab chemical toxins in those peels and this has been measured and confirmed over and over.

    Latices in a window ,, love this guy 😂 Ok,,, lets get serious,, time for a quick lesson on PARM ... Parmigiana or Parmigiano or Parmesan .. They all have reference to the province of Parma in North Italy .. For example a Parmesan in Italy could be used to describe a person from Parma,, (just like a Texan from Texas) but it can also be used as the name of their most world wide famous cheese ( Parmesan Cheese) .. Parmigiana or Parmigiano are both Italian words used to describe the style or ways of something done by the people in Parma wether its cooking or making wine or cold cut meats etc.. Other examples of that are ,, Neapolitan pizza,, which was derived in the provide of Napoli ,, or Tuscan Chicken, which was derived in the Province of Tuscany ,, Bari sausages, obviously derived from the province of Bari.. .. So when we say Chicken Parmesan ,, its a chicken dish derived in the province of Parma 😉
