*The eggplant layers are tender and flavorful, and the cheesy goodness is just what I needed. It's a great way to enjoy a classic dish while staying on track with my keto goals.*

[@panjibear7412]

Thank you for a great recipe ! you are so calm & no crazy music in the back ground . I have been doing keto for two years & love it! Especially when I can cook everything with healthy fats .

[@EasyToKeto]

Thank you! Yes, what's not to love about healthy fats, right? :)

[@daynagonmechi]

Just cooked this for my Indian husband, and it was a hit! He just started doing keto with me, and I’m non-veg, he’s veg. It’s a struggle to find good keto meals to cook for him, and I’m so glad that I found your channel! ❤️

[@EasyToKeto]

My pleasure 😊

[@casadimilano7048]

I did it, I loved it. It is time consuming due to the eggplants, but otherwise worth it ❤️

[@hetakothari9619]

Hi Hetal! Please can you share more keto salad recipes?

[@monikatrivedi8213]

Hi Hetal- Show Me The Curry was the first Indian food channel I ever watched several years ago and have made many of your recipes and been rewarded with happy family members’ tummies 😀. Just a very quick comment - Parm is not vegetarian as a key ingredient in it is animal rennet - made from the enzymes lining calves’ stomachs! Several other cheeses fall in this category. Having said that, there are vegetarian parm cheeses- Whole Foods carries veg parm in the house brand. If you ever see “microbial rennet” listed as an ingredient in a cheese, you can rest assured that cheese is vegetarian. Hope this helps!

[@EasyToKeto]

Thank you for the information Monika, and thank you for your continued love and support!!

[@bhuvpkumar5861]

great recipe!! Thank you!. Any alternate to ricotta cheese? Greek Yoghurt or paneer? Cause I want to try today and I dont have Ricotta...lol :D :D

[@EasyToKeto]

Sorry for the late reply...Greek yogurt is a possibility but may be too tangy. Paneer's texture is very different and quite crumbly.

[@nathanreetz]

looks great! i have 4 eggplants and am def going to try this do you have the ingredient list somewhere?

[@EasyToKeto]

Thank you! The full recipe is listed in the description box below the video.

[@grandpacavendish4422]

Looks great, Hetal. I will make this. One question: you appear quite lean, and fit. Are you doing keto for weight loss, or for another reason? Is there a place for keto, if one doesn't want weight loss? Thanks, and, all the best. Ed

[@EasyToKeto]

Thank you GC! Give or take 5-10 pounds here and there, I've been fortunate to maintain my weight over the years, even without Keto. If you watch this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/n4uci2eVndGlr9U, it explains my family's journey with keto. You may find it interesting. Take care!

[@nayanchaudhari9660]

I am totally vegitarian , can I skip egg and make same way

[@jbartsy1]

Can these be frozen?

[@maryamuah4510]

Hi Hental. Good to see you still doing your thing. I miss your girl though. I like the unified front you present.

[@EasyToKeto]

Thank you! Yes, I miss her, too. :)

[@lathais]

Can I make it without eggs?

[@EasyToKeto]

Yes, you can. The egg holds the mixture together a little better and provides a little bit more protein but the flavor is not affected if you leave it out.

[@lathais]

Thank you! I used flax seed and water as substitute

[@lesliewilliford2179]

Does all the cheese make you constipated?

[@EasyToKeto]

Not really. Since I'm a vegetarian, I get a lot of fiber from veggies.

[@rizzashaineabarri6701]

We do not have ricotta, what other cheese can i use? Thank you 😊😊

[@EasyToKeto]

You could use fresh paneer mixed with a little heavy cream.

[@annielove7549]

You said that you make your own marinara sauce you should make that video you don’t have it on your KZbin channel.

[@EasyToKeto]

Yes, I'll get on that :)

[@marlak4253]

You forgot to taste it!

[@hellenmwasalwiba6555]

I did not know if vegans eat cheese

[@EasyToKeto]

Vegans do not eat cheese. I am a vegetarian, not a vegan.

[@ankitumrani9088]

Opps! @ 05:26 you lost there of being vegetarian. The inclusion of of eggs in vegitarian might differ from country to country but bird's eye view it's still non-vegetarian. As per the nutrition and fitness guidelines egg is not considered in vegetarian atleast to my knowledge.

[@EasyToKeto]

Yes, you are correct in that the definition of "vegetarian" differs from country to country. Here in the US, eggs are considered vegetarian but not vegan. For this recipe, you can leave the eggs out without any terrible consequences to the final product. They are meant to bind the cheese so it doesn't ooze out too much.

[@ankitumrani9088]

@@EasyToKeto any alternative suggestions? If not egg pls

[@monapar2706]

Can u give options if u don’t eat egg .. u said vegetarian egg is not vegetarian 😁

[@EasyToKeto]

The purpose of the egg is to bind the ricotta cheese. You can definitely leave it out and it won't affect the taste (the cheese may ooze out a bit while baking). Eggs are considered vegetarian, just not vegan (or strict vegetarian).

[@Kusumaappajirao]

Content is good, but too much and toooo much of talking

[@archanapatwardhan2453]

This video is definitely a click bait for vegetarians. Adding an egg clearly makes it "not vegetarian". Don't give the US b.s. People consider food containing veggies as vegetarian in US. Being an Indian you could have been sensitive to the dietary content you share, a little bit strictly. Disappointed!

[@DINO_TREX9]

One simple recipe and u waste 17mins.... R u kidding me
