Ottolenghi Simple | Roasted Eggplant with Curry Yogurt

[@joerg9625]

I received the book recently, I particularly noticed the great recipe, nicely presented to imitate!

[@tomfairfield9245]

My new favourite veg dish and I find the vid strangely calming!

[@CookbooksonRepeat]

Thank you! I'm glad you find it relaxing. :)

[@rochelle917]

Excellent. wonderful melange of flavors, textures and colors. Defimitely the star of my weekday dinner tonight

[@CookbooksonRepeat]

Glad you liked it! It’s a wonderful recipe.

[@HappyHungryHibby]

I’ve got two aubergines ready to make this recipe, not realised you have covered this! I love your style without presenting & I’ve moved more towards this style. Your editing & music have always been brilliant & love the chilled vibe, it’s very therapeutic 👌🏼😜

[@CookbooksonRepeat]

Thanks James! You know, some people are really not into no talking on videos. They've told me in the comments. I"m trying to work on maybe starting to introduce my videos with talk but I haven't gotten there yet. Lol. This is my MOST popular video of all time and I don't know WHY?!?!?!

[@juxbertrand]

[@retropian]

I’m definitely going to make this. I think it would also work well with courgettes.

[@CookbooksonRepeat]

Great! Let me know what you think.

[@retropian]

@@CookbooksonRepeat I veganized it by using cashew yogurt and it was superb. I had a couple of non vegan friends over for dinner and they loved it.

[@CookbooksonRepeat]

So glad it worked for you and your friends!! ❤️

[@21Diddley]

At 0.25 the on screen instruction is to slice the aubergine 3/4" thick, but what's shown is 1/4" slices. Before I go ahead and cook this could you confirm which is right?

[@CookbooksonRepeat]

It should be 3/4 inch thick. It may look thin but it’s really not. I remember measuring the thickness with a ruler. I found that cutting them thin made them dry out in the oven and a bit tough.

[@Carolf1213]

Yummmm

[@CookbooksonRepeat]

Thanks for watching! ❤️

[@zm8741]

Thanks . What’s gas mark on to roast

[@CookbooksonRepeat]

It’s 218 Celsius. I googled it and gas mark is 7? I’m not in the UK so we don’t use gas marks. Hope this is correct. :)

Bravo

[@CookbooksonRepeat]

Thank you so much!

[@ivydog100]

Just wondering is that dish supposed to be served hot or cold.

[@CookbooksonRepeat]

It can be hot or cold. You can make the sauce ahead and serve it cold on the warm eggplant too. :)

[@TheNinnyfee]

@@CookbooksonRepeat Or you could even warm the sauce up slightly if you don't want too much temperature contrast. I heard of people even slightly warming up classic mixed salads by microwaving for a few seconds or letting it sit out at room temperature before adding the dressing because they did not like the cold fridge version.

[@hccs9232]

Eggplant must be hot or cold on serving?

[@CookbooksonRepeat]

You can serve it hot from the oven or at room temperature. I just wouldn’t serve it cold from the refrigerator. Hope this helps!

[@GuyCruls]

why get your hands oily when you can use two wooden spoons? looks more 'artisan' in the video, does it? still, love the recipe...and Ottolenghi is a legend!

[@CookbooksonRepeat]

I knew I was going to use my hands to lay them out anyway so they'd get oily regardless. Also, it was just easier to toss them all with my hands. :)

[@reichhopprivatwatch1406]

it is more of a cold dish, or am i mistaken?!

[@CookbooksonRepeat]

ReichHop privatwatch Yes, I’d say it’s a room temperature dish. 😀 Thanks for watching!

[@HappyHungryHibby]

This is completely my style, love the editing and cuisine. This is really inspiring to me, as a new KZbinr starting out, doing these recipes too from the great Ottolenghi. I’ve subscribed and it would be great if you could give my channel some feedback too. Great to network & build a community

[@CookbooksonRepeat]

Thanks James! I'll go to your channel and check it out! Thanks for leaving a comment. Stay safe.

[@Lynnefromlyn]

Why go to all the. bother of trying to get the slices oiled in the bowl instead of pouring the oil over them in the tray? Only two slices had any oil on them!

[@CookbooksonRepeat]

I was trying to get a light coating of oil on each slice. The ones that look like they have oil on them were the ones that got the oil poured on them directly. Sure, you can just oil them on the tray. ☺️

Intriguing recipe - appears very tasty, but the pomegranate was murdered! Wasted the remainder of this fruit.

[@CookbooksonRepeat]

I took out the remaining arils in the fruit. Just didn't want to do it all on camera. :) Pomegranates are too expensive where I'm from not to.

[@useyourebrains]

It looks dellicous but it is not vegan 😅 Greek yoghurt🙊

[@CookbooksonRepeat]

Hi there! You can always use vegan yogurt to make the yogurt sauce to make it vegan.

The quickest way to keep me from subscribing to your videos is to publish them without any verbal commentaries that give a personal touch to the video. Sorry but a thumbs down from me.

[@CookbooksonRepeat]

Thanks for checking out my channel! "Acting" and public speaking and are not my forte'... working up to maybe making some videos with commentary.
