I have been a vegetarian for over a year now, and I am always looking for new recipes!! Eggplant is one of my favorites! Thanks for sharing your gifts and yummy recipes with the world! Sending loving energy everyone’s way! Namaste y’all!

[@tanyavariava4666]

Laura never fails to put a smile on our face😀

[@JavariasTestKitchen]

That's so true 🥰

[@Daven834]

I do eggplant balls too Laura,my mixture contains; Eggplant ( baked then peel) Egg Caramelized diced onion ( i caramelized bcoz it gives another level of flavor😉) Minced chicken breast ( marinated) Salt + pepper Chickpeas flour ( thats another flavor) A bit of flour And breadcrumbs to roll after molding it to a ball. What do u think? No sauce though.I make thousand salad dressing for my dipping sauce. But i like your way too.I’ll try that one of these days😉😉

[@emet030789]

Baked than peeled is a better way I would say. Thank you for the recipe, I love eggplants.

[@Daven834]

Jahjazzz I dont include the peel ,since it is baked.I scrapped the eggplant meat and chopped to mix with seasoned chicken minced meat.Believe me,i was surprised how the result came out.☺️Though of course you can include the peel. Note: Remember to coat the balls onto breadcrumbs before frying.

Never had eggplant meatballs before! This is so original! Thank you for sharing this tasty recipe! 🙏❤️🔔

She got everything from her garden aaahhh the smell a fresh tomato 🍅 on the vine the absolute best

[@JavariasTestKitchen]

Imagining 😎🤓

[@annamcarthur3409]

Oh my. I've never heard of this way of serving eggplant! It sounds delicious and it's another great way of adding a meat free meal to the weekly menu.

[@paulineohea175]

So tanned healthy and looking terrific Laura. Thanks for making lockdown easier while watching your great videos. 🇦🇺❤️

True words😍 She's getting more beautiful with every passing day

[@bobscafidi9184]

You look pretty too

[@malloryg4251]

I know, I was just thinking how envious I am of her tan. I am so pale and my skin looks like an old leather boot if I try to tan. But Laura looks gorgeous.

[@Mauraworld]

Absolutely delicious!! These eggplant meatballs were AH-MAZING! Thank you for posting your wonderful recipe.

[@elizabethknight843]

I love, love, love this recipe!! I bake them as you do. I garden so I always have a lot of eggplant to use. Last summer, I made this recipe to freeze and use in the winter. It worked well! I also received an air fryer for Christmas. Turns out the eggplant meatballs were made for the air fryer. I pop them directly from the freezer to air fryer. I get a bit of crispy outside and they hold up better in my marinara sauce.

[@emmajenkins6290]

Thank you so much for this recipe laura!! Im Vegetarian and you always come with the goods for us!

[@cmugurl2840]

Thank you so much for making vegetarian-friendly recipes 🥰

[@ester8436]

You can also (carefully) flip them mid way through the baking process and they’ll get crispy-ish on both sides.

[@ninidagul805]

Love how her dad wants to share the recipe with us!

[@alicekintisch1561]

Made this last night (Sept. 6, 2020). It was terrific! We loved it. Used my own garden-grown tomatoes to make the sauce. Thanks, Laura!

[@Lilliancooks]

Did you make these exactly as written?

[@MrNicki4u]

I cook without any recipes, as I love experimenting. However, if my dish is just no there, I always look at your videos and my dish is fixed! Also a lot of inspiration when cooking. You make it look easy and fun.

@@JavariasTestKitchen it's that good for me, my favorites and your favorites will be different I'm sure. If you haven't tried it already I recommend it. If you have and you don't like it then like I said, everyone's palate is different. To me it is that good! :-)

[@JavariasTestKitchen]

@@LucyMorningstar999 no i haven't treid it that's why i was asking😊 generally i like eggplants and they are cooked often in our household. I'll definitely try this😁

[@coco7263]

Thank you for sharing 😍 always looking for a new way to prepare this veggie. I’ve Enjoyed watching your recipes and will be trying this one for sure😊 Thank your dad for texting you. 😊

[@sassyleochick]

Very delicious but there is no need to peel the eggplant, add water, bake , fry freeze, or to mash them.. ( unless you want to.) Just cut the eggplants add the oil and cover til soft. Therre will be not moisture, and air fry them if your stove has that setting. Thank, you Laura. Once again your recipe came through👍❤️

Ive been looking to put more veggies in my diet laura thank youuuu

Dude I JUST bought eggplant and really needed to use it. You are bomb rn. Lol 👍

[@ChaThuSCuiSinE]

Exceptional chef so inspiring to see how you organize everything on point 😍

[@maksymstrut8687]

in eastern europe we salt the eggplant like 4 hours before using it and let it rest, it removes the bitterness and you can keep the seeds without having to throw out like half of the vegetable.

Mrs. Laura, great recipe & i've never seen these. Folks, if you don't have a garden & grow eggplant, try to buy sicilian eggplant , they are a little smaller, but have the least amount of seeds & bitterness, less than italian or from california

[@ninadukette3340]

Just discovered Sicilian eggplant. Nice fruity flavor
