You’re an awesome guy. Everything is so comprehensive and very well presented. I could almost smell that eggplant dish. Gracias y saludos desde Puerto Rico en el Caribe.
This recipe really does appear to let the eggplant shine as the star of the show! Not breaded, fried and smothered in sauces or cheeses! I have always wanted a “perfect” recipe for them, this looks like the one! I am going to go to the store to get a few of the missing ingredients so I can serve this tonight with a salad! Thank you for your time and effort making these videos!! Be Safe and Blessings. 🌹🌹🌹🌹
UPDATE: These are amazing! Such a fresh clean flavor just perfect for a dinner when it’s hot! (I live in the desert🙂) Didn’t get them made last night but I did tonight!! 👍🏼🌹❤️🌹❤️🌹❤️
I love eggplant also,I want to share one of my favorite recipe. Salt,drain, drench in flour,fry in oil,put on paper towel, smear with little mayo,put on top slice tomato and top it with shredded mozzarella with mayonnaise and crushed garlic,parsley on top.On second day/it you have some/I put it microwave for few sec to melt cheese. Delicious!
HOLY CRAP! THIS WAS OUTTA THE BALL PARK. I DID NOT GROW UP WITH EGGPLANT AS A FAMILY DISH, SO REALLY DID NOT KNOW ABOUT IT. BUT THIS WAS EXCELLENT. AND ALL MY DINNER GUESTS SAID CIAO BELLA! THANK YOU FOR A REALLY EASY DINNER DISH.
This looks fantastic! I just put my tomato and eggplant in the garden yesterday. It's going to be a couple months until I have fresh ingredients to work with. Can't wait.
I followed this as shown except that I like to use a veggie Peeler to make stripes in eggplants & zucchini. ( only me likes this) I only had provolone cheese on hand. To say it was scrumptious is an understatement. It was so good that we almost fought over it. I will make it many times over but will have to double the recipe. Sad to have no leftovers tonight but glad everyone loved it. Thanks do much for sharing this jewel of a recipe. We are not worthy!
I only recently found you and I’m so glad. I enjoy your clear, simple approach to all I have watched this far. Thank you. I have subscribed today- I don’t want to miss a one.
I just made it. Very good. More garlic than I am used to, but I got used to it quickly. First time I successfully roasted eggplant. Usually, it is bitter.
I just discovered your channel last week, and it became my favourite cooking channel on youtube. This is the third one of your recipes that i tried, and i have to say every single one of them turned out absolutely delicious, me and my wife both liked them. I really appreciate that many of your recipes are vegetarian, and the thing that you use simple ingredients. Keep up the good work man !
Eggplant is one of my favorite foods, but a lot of even the greatest recipes for it - like eggplant parmigiana and Imam Bayildi - are very high in calories. Albert's eggplant recipes are much lighter than most, and his trick of salting and draining the eggplant before cooking is a great way to keep it from absorbing too much oil and getting mushy. LOVE!!!
After watching you at work a few times I have now subscribed to your channel! I love ❤️ your recipes because they are easy to make, delicious, and healthy! I am vegetarian and your recipes are perfect for me! I was always afraid of making eggplant because it is a tricky vegetable. You changed my mind! You make it look so simple and the tricks and tips you shared with me (like letting them sit for 30 min covered with salt remove moisture) are so valuable! Thank you!
Sigh,,, deep breathe, sigh... I'm pretty sure you don't understand the meaning of the word farm. But i wouldn't expect anything less from a commie. So while, hopefully you're taking this chance to educate yourself. and learn the meaning of farming. and hopefully how to engage brain before mouth or keyboard. i'll be eating some delicious chicken tendies.. from chickens, that were farmed, on a farm, using farming practises. If you still don't get it. maybe we could go for a chopper ride. we can fly above some farms, until we reach a lovely concrete car park.. Coz remember ..... the only good commie, is a pancaked commie....
@@jay.6640 Agreed. And regenerative farming is replenishing the the soil. I want my animals to eat the most nutritious 'salad' they can before I eat them. Enjoy!
Made this tonight. Good recipe. I used 12 year old Cheddar instead, and I used extra garlic. Im a garlic fan, but stick to spainonforks ratio, mine was too garlicky. Great recipe nevertheless. Thanks
Hi Albert. I'm so hooked on your site and things are going well for me after being in Spain for almost two and a half months. I've been spending a lot of time with you working on these Spanish recipes. Question: are there any regions in Spain where eggplant is stuffed, either with meat or a vegetarian version? If so, would love it if you would share! Thanks! Keep up the great work!
Do you have recipe for Spanish rice? I remember my grandmother making it with chicken drummettes,olives,she put in cream of mushroom sauce and mushroom,with celery,onion,tomatoes than rice.
Yum looks delicious i am making this soon can i use vegan cheese as am a vegan can i skip tomatoes as am not a big fan of it perfect for my office snacks love your recipes making me hungry Thanks Ramya
Once again - a beautiful recipe - so simple, cheap and nutritious. I have some lovely tomatoes on my kitchen counter and will definitely go and buy some aubergine tomorrow. I don't have a pestle and mortar but I will figure something out!!! 4 of my favorite ingredients - aubergine, tomatoes, garlic, parsley (not forgetting the oil, of course) I am really looking forward to trying it. One question: I have noticed that in some recipes (not only yours') that some cooks advise parchment paper and others foil - is there any gastronomic reason for this? I have the paper but don't use it much and tend to go with foil. Just wondering. Thanks!!!
Foil is better for high heat (grill/broil). Paper for baking and anything delicate. For some reason, I can get crispier sweet potato fries with the paper

This same recipe only using pesto instead of the parsley mixture is also really good.
great tip for less work thanks :-))
Confirmed. Thanks for the tip, simplifies it and is delicious!

Pisto manchego is good, too, but you do start with breading/frying them
Hope you enjoy! much love :)
UPDATE: These are amazing! Such a fresh clean flavor just perfect for a dinner when it’s hot! (I live in the desert🙂) Didn’t get them made last night but I did tonight!! 👍🏼🌹❤️🌹❤️🌹❤️
Roasted. Garlic. Eggplant. Three of my favorite things all in one place!
Yes! much love :)
On my menu for a vegetarian dinner with a salad. Thank you. Always appreciate recipes for the humble eggplant.
Sounds great! much love :)

I haven’t been too successful in cooking eggplant in the past. It’s been a while and now I’m willing to give this recipe a try!
Hope you enjoy! Much love :)
Don't throw away that toasted cheese! If it's not bitter (burnt), it's excellent as a garnish.

Perfect timing! I have bought aubergines this week and didn’t know what to make! That’s tonight’s dinner sorted ❤️🤗🏴

Beautiful! Can you do this in an air fryer?
Made this tonight. Good recipe. I used 12 year old Cheddar instead, and I used extra garlic. Im a garlic fan, but stick to spainonforks ratio, mine was too garlicky. Great recipe nevertheless. Thanks
Sounds great! much love :)
What can I use, instead of tomatoes?
Maybe mushrooms?
jarred roasted red bell peppers :) much love

Yes in La Mancha they have stuffed eggplant with meat, thanks for the comment :) much love
They look great and very cute!!🤩 Nice one Albert!👍
Thanks so much 😊
Love it I Wil copy this I've been looking this thanks for they recipe
Hope you enjoy! much love :)
I'm interested to know why u need to pre salt the aubergine and leave it in the colander for half an hour first?looks v tasty btw!
It takes out some of the water so it roasts better and also removes some of the bitterness
Thanks for awesome receipe !!
Thank you :) much love!
Great recipe, thanks. How about sprinkling some breadcrumbs along with the cheese?
I would also salt and pepper the tomato
Tried this one last night, oh yes this a wonder! And no meat, today i bought more aubergines!
Fantastic! much love :)
Do you have recipe for Spanish rice? I remember my grandmother making it with chicken drummettes,olives,she put in cream of mushroom sauce and mushroom,with celery,onion,tomatoes than rice.
I saw the pictures on Instagram and thought I must make this recipe asap!
Hope you enjoy! much love :)
@@SpainonaFork thanks!
Alberto, I would love to see a crema de naranja! And a delicia de manzana (cuando llegue la temporada)
Stay tuned! much love :)

@@SpainonaFork I used zucchini but made the eggplant recipe .... it was very wonderful !!!!!
and garnish at the end with (real) bacon bits !
Would this work if you peel the eggplant? I really hate eggplant skin
Absolutely :) much love
@@SpainonaFork Thank you so much I’m definitely gonna try that

@@LindaC616 Thanks, Linda!!
You MUST get Pestle and Mortar. Flavour will intensify.
@@karlrz Oh, I know!!! Very stupidly I had one some years ago and gave it to someone else!!!??? Will keep my eye out for one. Thanks.
Good 👍
Thank you :) much love!
I like eggplant but don't include in my meals. I must!
Looks delicious
Thank you :) much love!
SMOSH!!
Look like little eggplant pizzas!
🍃❤🍃👍
Much love :)
Looks fabulous! Trolls that like the taste of sh!t give your video a thumbs down!
B
Have to take the skin off ......🤢
Agree with the salting and everything. No to the skin....
Watch the timings, uncooked garlic and eggplant is nasty...
:)
Thank you Jon :) much love!
