FULL EP: Pasta but make it Asian 😆🤫 Bolognese, Garlic Butter, Lasagne | Marion's Kitchen

This is pasta, but my way: with surprise Asian ingredients that you'd think would have no place in an Italian dish, how I sneak hidden veg into my family-style bolognese, what to do with leftover meat sauce and my winning recipe for homemade pasta.

You can also cook eggplants the way Italians do, by frying them until golden like you would in a puttanesca. They’ll be sweet and feel like meat bits. Add them just before serving.

[@Marionskitchen]

Yum! I love eggplant any way it’s cooked! 😃 I like this idea 👍

[@barryjubber175]

Durban Indian community has always used brinjal. Fried, curried etc. Also good fried in batter.

[@belinagarcia2923]

Hello there from Central Mexico!! I am a Chef specializing in Classical Mexican Cuisine but I do cook everything else, love Thai and all Asian dishes! Wanted to write to tell you about my "cheat" for Lasagna in case you don't find Ricotta, which used to happen a long time ago, so I use plain old Cottage Cheese, add 2-3 eggs, salt & pepper any additional spices you like and some melting cheese on top, now I don't beat it so much since it won't matter so just bring it all together and use as a regular Bechamel layer in the dish. This will firm up with the baking and you'll get a nice even creamy layer to your lasagna, of course, Parmesan Cheese and do your layers as regular... hope you try it.

[@barryjubber175]

My daughter found out that I put brinjal in the mince when she was in her twenties. Told me I was a bad parent as she does not eat brinjal and I lied to her. She now does the same to her children. Circle of life.

[@Feebeeee]

Made the first recipe tonight but replaced the eggplant with a sweet potato & a little capsicum, because that is what I had, and so delicious! Will definitely make your way from now on, thank you ☺️

[@Shampaggin]

There are ragus all over Italy, the bolognese is just the most famous. So while we might not be able to call it a "proper" bolognese, it's still a totally legit ragu and I would smash it 100% if I ate meat. Might have to make it with lentils or a minced veg mix. 🤤

[@erikkirby1]

made your bolognese tonight! added spinach on top of the sauce at half time... and red pepers... It was a win for my son!!! Parmegiano reggiano on top made it the bomb!!! Thank you for this deliscious recepie! and yes i added soy sauce!

[@Marionskitchen]

Woohooo! So happy to hear you and your son loved it! 😍 Thanks for letting me know!

[@Ilmilkia_TV]

Hi Marion, love your video's and recipe's, and I recommend it to friend's. watching from UK. always x

[@jenjoy3215]

I could eat 4Xs the amount of Bolognese Marion had.

[@Patchworkalicat]

Wow, love these recipes, thank you! Pasta for tea now😊

[@Marionskitchen]

Glad you like them!

[@Patchworkalicat]

Very much, particularly adding aubergines to my bolognaise repertoire. I hide lots of veg from myself in my bolognaise, (even as an adult, not good with veg) I grate carrot, parsnips and courgettes into mine 😀

[@palomahealing5073]

That last real Simple one is what I mostly love🩷to make for myself!!

[@bkm2797]

Love the clever ways you created to use leftover bolognese, definitely want to give that a try. Also love the other recipe of fresh pasta with tomato, butter, garlic with an Asian touch. Both winners, thank you Marion, you are the best! Note: your kids are adorable!

[@Marionskitchen]

Thank you! And thank you for watching 🩷

[@kherbouchelyna6679]

Ohh how I understand the Asian twist on Italian food! I travelled twice to Hong Kong and fell in love with the culture and food. Since,, I myself put a little twist of Asian in every recipe even Algerian’s I grew up eating. My sister is horrified everytime I do it but I’m not stopping it life is too short!!

[@cc2016]

THAI DRUNK NOODLE IS MY ALL TIME FAVE. 🇹🇭 ❤

[@romeldionisio3149]

For me here in the Philippines, I use canned Spanish sardines and infuse it Creamy herb and garlic pasta sauce with lots of cheese and fried garlic and chili flakes. One of my most requested pasta creations ❤❤❤

[@sljt8d2g7nfp4ua6ey]

Eggplant never tried it, good idea 💡👍.

[@Marionskitchen]

It's so good! Try it out!

[@pixelfantasizer]

I will make and devour any and all her fusion recipes.

[@brendanhoffmann8402]

I've been doing something rather interesting lately. I've been making oat porridge and making it asian, with sesame oil, soy sauce, chilli, coriander, sping onion and eggs! It's really good and wonderful for your insides!

[@phalkunsot131]

Hi thank you so much for your cooking shows and I also add Asian sauce in the American food too awesome taste

[@talkandeattv]

i looove the way you own your unique cooking style

[@Marionskitchen]

Thank you! 🩷

[@thuycao1838]

My secret ingredient for a great bolognese is fish sauce 😅 try it before you knock it.

[@NashaBelle78]

Thank you for sharing...yet fish sauce is like for any dishes... really bring up the taste 🥰

[@tctc8578]

I ‘ve been adding soya sauce to so many dishes over the years, including Italian. It takes it to the next level and my kids love it as well! Try adding it to Indian meat marinades as well, sensational. Thanks Marion 👍🙏👏

[@Alexa-kb7fl]

It’s so good to see you again - Marion - welcome back! You are delightful and I love your creative ideas in your recipes - you are unique and stand out amongst all the other chefs. Thank you for sharing your cooking secrets - can’t wait to try them. Your Mom and children are adorable as well. ❤from Canada

[@Marionskitchen]

What a lovely comment to read! Thank you so much for watching! 🥰🥰🥰

[@erikaml2944]

Love ❤️ your clean, professional cooking and filming seriously. I’d say if someday thinking about to start a cooking show you’ll be one of my models 🎉. Also you could a beautiful and talented actress 😅! Thankyou Marion for sharing your cooking journey with us. I’ve learned a lot and still learning from every video you release accompanied of your unique tips! 🎉

[@Marionskitchen]

Oh thank you so much! What kind and lovely comments 🥰

[@miketan7222]

I eat bolognese with sambal belacan (Nam prik kapi is a close equivalent) as a condiment 😁

[@merajmalwenna7632]

Look so delicious 😋 yummy

[@lucioquinziocincinnato44]

Being Italian i kinda feel as I was the keeper of the holy graal of pasta 😂... However... Pasta is such a flexible base to work on, that will be good with more or less everything and everyone (except French and Germans 😂😂) can cook it the way they feel. Way to go girl! ❤

[@AlmightyAphrodite]

Poor Vincenzo, he's gonna have a heartattack over 'his' Italian cuisine not being made per decree 🙈🙈🤣 That said, I love your creativity! And this all just seems so yummy 🤤 never had a recipe of yours fail me (well... maybe spice wise, but I'm Dutch our traditional food has NO spice, Nothing! 🙈🙈 and now since that I'm cooking for myself, ive been experimenting and trying to up my tolerance 👌 youtube is absolutely amazing for getting to know different cuisines around the world and trying to recreate all kinds of dishes ❤ channels like these, that respect traditions, but aren't afraid to adjust and be creative (especially for people still getting to know certain foods, traditional levels might be too much of a 'new experience' 😅 having certain other creative options is great!)

[@Marionskitchen]

What a lovely comment to read. Thank you for watching and trying out my recipes! I very appreciate it! I’m so happy you’ve been finding my recipes useful and don’t worry…the spice tolerance will come! 😅😅😅

[@lucindas723]

That leftover roll up dish is a great idea! I'm not particularly fond of cottage cheese 😬 so I'd probably substitute ricotta but otherwise that looks delicious!

[@Marionskitchen]

Oh yes I’m sure it would be great with ricotta! 😃👌

[@lori1302]

Hi Marion, Greetings from Pittsburgh! The format and recipes in this video were brilliant! 🎉

[@Marionskitchen]

Thanks so much! 😊 We’re trying out this new format so any feedback is welcome 🩷

[@kaitlynlodewikus7525]

I totally get the star anise - My brother accidentally put 5 spice in our Bolognese once and it was actually very good 👌🏽

[@Marionskitchen]

Oh yes! I love that beautiful fragrance of Chinese 5 spice 😍

[@elenacasirati289]

I m Italian, I love your pasta bolognese. Great

[@rhondafleming3244]

Unfortunately I allergic to eggplants but they were extremely good I am jealous 😢😢😢

[@jacobcohen9205]

Love the channel, Marion. All the best from the Isle of Man.

[@angemaidment5640]

I was on a bus trip around Australia one time, and I put my hand up to help the cook. She made bolognese one night, and put NO MEAT in it! It was completely eggplant instead. I was shocked - but we were the only ones who knew, and you couldn’t tell there was no meat.

[@jprevatt]

Making the Bolognese tonight!

[@Marionskitchen]

Hope you love it! 🥰

[@waomi]

love asian-style pasta bc no lactose :) (except for cheese)

[@aussienic8428]

I haven't eaten eggplant before. I think it's the look that doesn't appeal to me, but I liked the way it melted down in this video. Maybe this might be a good way of introducing eggplant to my taste buds. 🤔😇😁

[@Marionskitchen]

Definitely a great way to get started on eggplant! I hope to convert you! It’s one of my favourite vegetables!

[@Kareemmadiha234]

Your kids are so cute

[@simply66]

The style of pans are called Rondeau.

[@sandrodellisanti1139]

Ciao and thank you for your very nice Video, which i like to share at Facebook, personally i love pasta and could eat them every day, maybe 'cause my father was italian from puglia, my Mom is german, so i'm a Mix.. maybe as for today i will cooking some pasta with Pesto Rosso, sorry for my bad english, normally german is my native language, i wish you all a wonderful Weekend, have a good time, many greetings from brunswick in germany and please stay safe 🙃

[@Marionskitchen]

Welcome and thanks for sharing! ❤

I love your chopping board, is it available online?

[@Marionskitchen]

Yay! Happy you noticed. These are part of my own kitchenware collection. You can find all my chopping boards here: cookdinehost.com/collections/chopping-boards

[@luvsong4no1]

Does anyone know which pan she’s using to cook the sauce? I’d like to get this one but I’m terrible at trying to figure out size!

[@JELOKARET]

where did u get your chopping board? the white with bits of color (tomato garlic butter pasta)

[@Marionskitchen]

Thanks for noticing 😃 It’s from my own collection. Our last order sold out I’m afraid but they’re available for pre-order for our next batch here: cookdinehost.com/collections/chopping-boards

[@lindapalmer4515]

pure cream and half and half are two different things. there is cream, whipping cream and half and half here in the states, at least where i am

[@veronicaorourke6091]

Yes and is it really cottage cheese or Ricotta? It looks like ricotta to me???

[@sadafalam2903]

What is tomato passata? Can I skip it if I just use canned tomatoes?

[@donjiela]

Ooohhh what are those cutting boards???

[@Marionskitchen]

They from my Asoke collection 😍 You can shop them here 😃 cookdinehost.com/collections/kitchenware/products/sasni-fairy-floss-recycled-chopping-board

[@ValerEvE]

How did you cut the carrots so small for the bolognese?

[@Marionskitchen]

I enjoy chopping LOL. You slice the carrot into thin sheets and then julienne and then chop into cubes. Or you can use a mandolin to slice into julienne and then dice :-)

[@ValerEvE]

@@Marionskitchen thank you!

[@veronicaorourke6091]

So it’s cottage cheese,not \ ricotta, right?

[@Bens_Views74]

1950's women were in the kitchen cooking? now forward to 2024 😂

[@blumberg1982]

Maybe it’s the style of pan I’m using but I cannot for the life of me get mine to look like yours. What am I doing wrong?!! My sauce doesn’t get thick or stick to my pasta. It’s so frustrating. I don’t bring pork in my home for religious reasons (I’m Jewish and I try not to but I do eat it), so I use beef bacon and beef mince.

[@AKANARYUU]

If you peel the eggplant before chopping the kids would never know it was there. 😈

[@modestacattaruzza7400]

Yes thats pasta your way alright, because the Bolognese bdauce absolutely has no garlic whatsoever.

[@ThePadmasesh]

What can be used instead of meat in a bolognese sauce? We are vegetarian.

[@Shampaggin]

Fellow veg here. I like a mix of finely minced mushrooms (king oysters work quite well, or rehydrated shiitake), zucchini, and eggplant. You could use a fake ground beef substitute, but I like to keep it less processed. 😉

[@Marionskitchen]

That’s a great suggestion! Love that!

[@brokenglassshimmerlikestar3407]

Wow I'm early. Pastaaaaaaaa!

[@annacastillo1663]

No meat! 😢
