Those who are saying he copied from Indian recipe, please breathe. These two dishes are used in Iran and many other countries. Give the credit to this man who took the time out to show us how to make these two dishes.
Hhhh😂funny..u r stealing arabic culture as usual
Finally someone knows the difference!! People from out of Lebanon always confuse both recipes. Luckily I've learned the right recipes in childhood.
Finally someone is setting the record straight on what baba ghanoush really is
I am now retired, living in Poland and for the second year in a row I grow my veg. Exciting!
In feb i seeded some eggplants and i grow 8 huge plants.
Now the eggplant fruits are huge and healthy, ready to harvest. This recipe is the answer to my recent dreams.
Thank you!
They would be great with homegrown eggplants!
I live in Poland now too and I'm but to plant some too, hope they turn out as nice as yours
It has really suprised me that you can grow eggplants in Poland and succeed - that's great news, thanks for sharing your experiences.
I live in Australia..
I can grow most vegetables (organic) but I am a miserable failure with tomatoes.
I have tried everything to grow these tom's.. but to no luck.
I will try when our summer comes around again.
Australia ❤️
@@avengernemesis7990put a roof over the tomato plants. When they get wet they tend to get illnesses really quickly.
Finally someone explained to the common man the difference between the two 🙌🏻 thank you
My Lebanese grandmother taught me how to make Mutabbal (the second one). Hers is a bit different: she adds a bit of yogurt with the tahini for colour and for richness. Also, if you only have an electrical stove like me, you can just broil the eggplants in the oven!
I’m British Lebanese and my parents and family don’t add yoghurt as in our region of Lebanon we keep it vegan as many Christian Lebanese tend to fast alot throughout the year. Also many people can be milk/lactose intolerant so dairy is kept out as much as we can. Finally, we don’t add cumin or black pepper to moutabel.
Yes, you are right.
the original recipe which is very popular must have yogurt in it.
Yes I am working in Dubai in Arabic Food Mutabal is made with yougort eggplant and tahina
yogurt optional.
👅
Thank you so much! I'm Syrian, and I've always been confused as to why mutabbal is called baba ghanoush in the west! So good job clarifying that misconception.
It’s a Lebanese name .
Mutabal is Arabic word comes from توابِل= spices
@@TheTruth-ko9ov
Mutable is a Lebanese word and it doesn’t mean spices but it means (to mix with other ingredients) and it could be spices or lemon or tahini or anything.
@@TheTruth-ko9ov
In Lebanon they have both mutabball and Baba ghanoush.
المتبل لا تعني توابل و عندما تنقع او تخلط مواد مع بعضها اسمها تتبيله و متبل مستعله فقط في لبنان و في مناطق معينه من لبنان و بعدها انتشرت هذه الكلمه. و حتي التبوله عندما تخلط مع بعضها يقولون انا راح تبلها و منها جائت كلمه تبوله و هي كلمه لبنانيه بحته .
I love the simple, straighforward and clear preparation and presentation! Since coming to the middle east, I have grown to love the food! Along with the fattoush, tabbouleh and hummus, I super love these side dishes! Im a sucker for side dishes from different cuisines!
Why do you say you are a sucker for dishes from another country? You should been proud of your arab dishes , they are very rich in vitamines.
Me too❤😂
Thank you!!!! Finally found someone puts a video with the original authentic recipe that we grow up with and showing the difference between the two !! Mouttabbal is often mislabeled as baba ghanouj !
Ливанская кухня в моём сердце навсегда ❤️ Её невозможно забыть 🫶

But i baked the eggplants in the oven and remove the inside part from the skin. It was delicious, too. Thanks for sharing Chef.
Best recipe, cant get enough of it!
You’re the best! Thanks!🤗
No confusion, absolutely done well. ❤❤
I tried these out yesterday & they were just amazing!! Thank you :)
🥰😋Thank you for this video! Finally someone posting an informative recipe. I am tired of seeing mutabbal being called baba ganoush everywhere
Both look very tempting!! Egg plant being favourite!! Thanks for sharing!!
I will add my 2 cents. cool your eggplants in colander to drain extra juices. to minimise washing, cut your eggplants in the bowl, using two knives, pulling against each other as a scissors. pomegranate molasses can be used in stead of pomegranate arils.
Brilliant recipe and brilliant presentation! This is exactly the way recipes should be represented so congratulations - got to go since I have some aubergines in the garden to pick! Thanks for this!
Love your channel! Thank you!
Thank you very much, really appreciated!

Superb.
Que pintor tienen esas recetas . Mmmmm!!!
Thanks very much
Finally! Someone who knows the difference! 😍
Hello Firat, high respect to you and to your achievements in the Turkish cuisine, excellent recipes techniques and ingredients.
Baba Ganouch recipe is very satisfying and i agree with everything you did 👌🌶
No need to infuse or use any cumin in Mutabbal, it is just grilled eggplant and tahini sauce.Neither any black pepper.The sprinkle of sumac is a king move👍🌶
Dude, cheers!
Babaganuşu denedim şahane oldu, bütün aile kaşıklaya kaşıklaya yedik, ellerinize sağlık şefim, tarif için teşekkürler
Superb
Both are great but on top of this is your video - great job!
🙏
So very delicious that I like the recipe my friend ❤️ 😘 👍 👌 😋
I’m British Lebanese and learnt through my parents and extended family members about making moutabel. You did it very well yet we don’t add cumin or black pepper as you are overpowering the spices over the smoked aubergines. Each to their own I suppose yet everything was good, especially baba-ganoush where you roasted the tomatoes and chillies. In Lebanon, a monk invented salatat rahib (meaning monk’s salad) where it’s similar to baba-ganoush but using fresh salad ingredients of tomato, radish, bell peppers, parsley & salt with a garlic lemon and oil dressing. I will try your baba-ganoush
I could be wrong, but I believe that the first meze was Mutabbal and the second one was Baba Ganoush. Folks from Lebanon to confirm 🙂
I am Lebanese too! I thought I was going crazy because that first dish is mutabal and the second is babaghanouj…Lol
Sabroso 😋😋
Gracias ❤🙏⚘🇲🇽🙌
