Berenjena Guisada Dominicana | Dominican Stewed Eggplant | Made To Order | Chef Zee Cooks

[@KayKingss]

I am a New Yorker with Central American roots and I ust married a Dominican and I am just trying to get better at making Dominican dishes so THANK YOU! you're awesome!

[@leivinpavon9648]

Putting the eggplants over your stove flame to give it a smoky flavor is my fav way .

[@paulbrown4539]

This is how I had it and the charing makes it taste better

[@drcorniel1]

I agree

[@zakaialfred9543]

a tip : watch series on Flixzone. Been using it for watching loads of movies these days.

[@emanuelaydin3306]

@Zakai Alfred Yea, have been watching on flixzone for since november myself :D

[@JC-ql3ld]

I also roast the peppers on the stovetop gives it such a good flavor

[@chrissya.556]

I love how you gave us the vegan option. As a vegan I have figure out all the subs for my Dominican food.

[@Chefzeecooks]

I got you! The majority of my friends of Vegan and you'd be surprised just how much Dominican food is already vegan friendly. I'll have more Vegan dishes coming soon. Thanks for watching :)

[@gfhuerta]

I’m with you

[@Maggie-gv4df]

I love to make this as a filling for a pastelon de platanos maduro when I want to go vegan. Love your channel.

[@Chefzeecooks]

That sounds like Heaven. OMG. I need to try that myself!

[@jennybermudez4726]

Gurl!! That lime hit all the right places 😋 👌

[@shinebright048]

I love that you always mention the vegan option to your dishes

[@Chefzeecooks]

Thank you! I'm trying to do this more often since so many of my friends are now vegan :)

[@johnnyc3184]

My abuela use to make with Eggs, Bacalao or Eggplant Parm. It was horrible. But 2 weeks ago I went to a Dominican restaurant and Eggplant Stew is the best way to eat it. I like my Berejena Guisada with Big Chunks. I don't mash it, I prefer texture. It's just like Pollo Guisado. I love Berejena Guisada! Owwwwww!

[@chiquita4120]

I just followed this recipe and im dead serious, its amazing.. im eating it right now just after following you.. im having it with white rice, yuca & plátano.. AND i added 5 garlic cloves to one big berenjena 🍆 and it tastes soooo sooo good & the xtra lime as u mentioned that u & ur mom add more so i did the same and im loving it.. 👍🏼🤣😋 thank u so much for your recipes love them ♥️😘

[@crystalmelendez6277]

I'm trying this today. I'm sure once I make it like you say, it's gonna be a banger like always!!

[@blessmom]

Yay... I love this dish. My mother in law makes it everytime she visits. Thank you chef zee. I'm making this tomorrow.

[@Chefzeecooks]

You're welcome!!! SO happy that you like!

[@hitman6236]

You had me at "Hello"...LOL...This will be attempted extremely soon. I love this dish. Thank goodness for Tablets and Wi-fi - I go step by step with your videos. Keep posting these great vids.

[@cleggett3410]

Just stumbled on this recipe. Back in the late 80s my spanish friend would make this for me by the Tupperware bowl full with white rice and I would eat every bit of it and nobody had not better ask me for any of it (not sharing- selfish, I know). I haven't found anyone who could make it taste the way hers did. Now I can attempt to try it for myself. Wish me luck😀

[@carolc.596]

This was DELICIOUS. Thank you for sharing. ❤

[@BeverlyAbreu]

Your videos always come in clutch!!! My husband is super Dominican and isn’t use to American food. I’ve made berenjena guisada so many times but I never knew to get that texture you mashed it, I thought if I cooked it more it would do it self and I never got the results I wanted and my husband would hate it that way. Anyways thank you Chef Zee

[@Jagger02]

Thank you Z! Never knew about the touch of lime at the end. Will try out your recipe minus the sopita and sazón; I like to keep the MSG low.

[@Chefzeecooks]

You got it. In my newer videos (2019 and after) I omit the use of sopita and adobo in 90% of my recipes in exchange for kosher salt instead. I find it keeps the sodium low, takes out the MSG out but doesn’t sacrifice on flavor. This is a video and recipe that I need to update. Thank you so much for watching!

[@M3du5ana]

Love it!!! My mom makes this. Thank you for the recipe. I love alot of garlic too.

[@narragansett0810]

Soooo good!!! Thank you for sharing

[@skarletc2482]

I love berenjenas 🍆 guisadas. I love garlic 🧄 too.

[@yelg09]

I love love your videos! you cooking is excellent. Gracias!

[@Gmarieproductions]

Ammmazzing recipe just made this soooo delicious

[@mrstinkz]

I grew up eating this but my grandma would put the eggplant on the stove and burn the skin. Unfortunately I have an electric stove so this recipe literally was perfect. I made it last night and it was amazing!!! I wish I could post a picture. I think maybe the adobo AND the cubito is a little to much salt but than again I only made one. Thumbs up to you this was an amazing recipe

[@RAMO75]

Just made it yesterday with costillitas de puerco! Yum!

[@GLENNYS212]

I love love your channel and the way you present each recipe. I love berenjena guisada! I have also tried it with coconut milk, same thing with okra( molondrones). Yumm so good! Keep up the good work!

[@katherinemejia3356]

Girl!!!!!! I just made this and you just made me feel like the only chef LOL this was bomb! 🥰 Thank you!

[@guttsoandi2023]

[@soraydarosa6641]

Thanks! I’m cooking my first berenjena today 🙌

[@vilmavega5644]

I have never had lime in my eggplant! I’m so excited to try that!

[@Chefzeecooks]

It's honestly my favorite part. I add extra when I'm eating lol

[@fairbearhenderson7998]

Hi Chef Z!! I absolutely love this recipe. I make this dish all the time! I have a question, is this dish freezer friendly? I'm having surgery in a few weeks and want to make sure I have my favorite dish ready to eat!!

[@jazmins637]

[@Chefzeecooks]

Haha Berenjena isn't for everyone. My boyfriend HATES it lol

[@juliepelegrino3789]

[@LorensJ]

Thank you chef! I’m actually trying to cut down on meat so this is great 😁

[@Chefzeecooks]

[@Chefzeecooks]

[@adolphtoussaint2344]

Can you add anything to it like meat, shrimp, crab?

[@MONSTRZ]

Add Cod 🐟 known in Spanish as "Bacalao"

[@kimmy1984]

You are so adorable. Thanks for sharing another great recipe.

[@Chefzeecooks]

You're welcome!!! Thank you so much for watching :)

[@doowopshopgal]

I love to add bacalao

[@Chefzeecooks]

Do it!!! Lol I love adding some pork chops or ribs to it. It tastes so good!

[@emmasthoughts3565]

Doing it tomorrow. Gracias paisana

[@itzelyantonio88]

Looks yummy can you please show us what kind of sazon and adobo you use please?

[@gfhuerta]

A question. If you’re going to steam it, By adding water and then covering it,why would oil be necessary?

[@ixamxmsright]

Yummy!! Looks great ! Dont be mad Mami😁She did good.

[@Chefzeecooks]

Lmao! She knew even before she watched the video that I added extra garlic lol

[@Jacquee2012]

In Haiti we make this and sometimes add bacalao or make with shrimp crab beef, chicken and eat with rice

[@yuvelkamartinez6808]

Do you even have any food in HAITI?

[@candyluna2929]

I love garlic

[@rances73]

[@dimpledface9707]

No lime. Can I add lemon?

[@yvonnebannon7623]

Thank you!! I made it for the first time but I think I added too much garlic and sazón cuz it’s a little salty but it’s still very good!!! Next time I’ll add less! Merry Christmas!!!

[@Chefzeecooks]

Merry Christmas!!! Feel free to adjust the flavors to your liking! ^_^

[@mariamarfil1620]

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🇩🇴❤️

[@brendagreen1683]

👍😋

[@mirellakingsley756]

Por fabor en español tamvien

[@virginiamadrid3464]

I made this today , it was delicious but a little too salty for my tase ..besides that ..loved it

[@candyluna2929]

Bc you added too much salt

[@yahirarodriguez9146]

Please please fried eggplant

[@foreverblessed6365]

A little bit of salt 🤔 lol

[@GLENNYS212]

The salty water helps soften up the eggplant. The water is discarded and the eggplant is rinsed with clean water before cooking it

[@Jose-Gonzalez-cfl]

You're like me with garlic, tons and tons. I also ignore when recipes ask for a few cloves.

[@IrmaPereira]

Yummy my mom used to add bacalo, it looks so delicious 🍆

[@Chefzeecooks]

Nice!!! I have to try it with Bacalao. Sometimes my mom adds pork chops or ribs! So delicious.

[@MrPmul3708]

You are so gorgeous honey !!❤

[@Chefzeecooks]

Thank you!

[@xingcat]

That is some nice-looking eggplant! After all the emojis with eggplants, that sounds a little bit rude to say, LOL. A great dish to make other than Parmesan.

[@julilove77]

I Ll

[@jpavon758]

Your awesome it came out wonderful 👏 better then my moms 🥹
