cooking recipe , nice video
Thank you for watching! 🥰🙏🏻 it’s delicious and great meal to entertain.
Another winner Alessandro! Everything looks so easy. I am inclined to add, and add, and add to my dishes.....but from now on, I will just follow your recipes! You really are such a very pleasant person. Thanks so much for showing us the right way! I have always loved Italian food. 😋😍😀
Thank you so much! I’m humbled by your beautiful words. These are all recipes I make for my family and so happy to share with you. Food is indeed love ❤️
I wish I had seen your recipe first. I was trying to figure out what to do with eggplant I had before it went bad. I had some circumstances at my place that I had bought the eggplant for another recipe. I had unexpected company and I was unable to use my eggplant. So it was fixing to go bad I was trying to find out the easiest simplest thing to make with what I had so I would not waste the eggplant I had bought. I am so glad I found your recipe so this happens again I will do it your way the other one was too short and I'm sure it's going to be all running together. I love the idea of frying them before rolling them because it makes them firmer. I'm a feeling my recipe that I was following is going to be all mushy. Thanks for sharing I will let you know how this one turned out and then I will try yours looks so much better
me too. I adore watching you, listening to your "accent" and sometimes italian words. mostly I adore and appreciate the opportunity to Learn. Grazia, Grazia. :-)
Thank you. Your words are too kind. I’m thrilled to share my recipes. Cooking is fun and seeing everyone enjoying the food is priceless. 🥰 I simultaneously speak 2 languages English italian and Neapolitan 😂😂 the Neapolitan comes out especially if I’m mad. LOL
Unfortunately my wonderful husband doesn’t appreciate most dishes with eggplants but that doesn’t stop me from loving this delectable recipe! Thank you for sharing!
Hi Vicky,
I should’ve brought you some. Thank you always for watching 🥰🥰
I love watching her and food looks so good I’ve been using some of her recipe I love it thank you sharing your recipes
Hi Mary,
Sorry I missed your message. Thank you so very much! I truly cook with love and enjoy sharing my recipes. I’m in Italy right now and eggplants are in season. Making a parmigiana this afternoon. I’m making it Neapolitan style…salted and fried. Absolutely delicious! Cari saluti 💚🤍♥️
Thanks for the information pertaining to the salt. I was taught to salt also. You made this so easy to do....never thought to make a batter!
Thank you always for watching!
The eggplants are not the same like they were, really no need to salt. Soon I’ll be doing a parmigiana napoletana with a different technique. Take care and thank you
Wonderful! Love the frying process and the four that you hold together to drain. Thank you so much! 😊💕 Tuck them in like the little babies. Lol
Thank you so much for watching! Loved playing dolls with my girls. I would crochet the dolls clothes. So much fun. 💕 I remove all the oil that the recipe is almost dietetic 😂 hope you like all my recipes. 🥰🙏🏻
amazing 💞
❤️watching your channel!
Thank you Ariane. Hope you’ll love all my recipes. 🥰🥰
Bravissima
Grazie di cuore 💖.
Mamma mia o sentito l’odore della frittura si vedono buonissimi noi li facciamo differente grazie per dividere la ricetta li proverò ❤️
Thank you for watching! Le melanzane come le fai fai sono sempre squisite. Dicono che sia la regina della cucina. Spero che ti piaccia la mia ricetta. Saluti cari 🥰🥰
@@alessandrasfoodislove buongiorno Alessandra si è vero a me piacciono molto come li fai fai sono buonissimi ma sicuramente che farò quelli che ai fatto tu !! Ciao e buona giornata mia cara 💚
Hi Alessandra...love your recipes....i was wondering how to keep the ricotta from getting watery so much that it didnt work for me....couldnt roll it up too well....
Strain it overnight in a colander!1
She is correct. Strain overnight. I too had that problem and straining will fix that.
Have you ever tried to make your own ricotta? So easy and taste way better than any store bought.Plenty of chefs on RUclips will teach you.
Yum yum
Can this be frozen? Should it be baked first?
Hi, yes, bake it first and you can freeze it. During the summer months when eggplants are plentiful I fry them and freeze them wrapped in paper towel and in a ziplock bag. Hope this helps. Thank you for watching 🥰🙏🏻🇮🇹
When you’re frying the eggplant, can you use avocado oil? I am told it’s healthier than some of the other oils. I presume olive oil has two lowest smoke point and shouldn’t be used for frying. What are your thoughts?
Absolutely! I've been using it myself and love it. Even use it to fry my Zeppole. It's important to know what is better for our health
Thanks for letting us know about the salt as a kid my mom would make the eggplant and I would have my tongue swollen I guess cause of the acid. So she started to put it in salt to get the acid out
My pleasure! I’m in Italy right now and just had the best eggplant
Ormai anche Raffaele è un tuo fan!!! Guarda i tuoi video insieme a noi 🤗
Really??! Che gioia immensa mi hai dato!! 🥰🥰🥰tantissimi auguri per il suo compleanno. 🍰 era un bambolotto e gli piacevano tutte le pappine che gli preparavo 💕 grazie di cuore e saluti a tutti e 4 😘😘
@@alessandrasfoodislove grazie per gli auguri. È la stessa cosa che gli ha ricordato Clara dicendo: Quando siamo stati da Alessandra e ti preparava la pappa a te piaceva tantissimo e ne volevi sempre di più 😂. E poi ha raccontato tutti i giochi che faceva con le tue ragazze soprattutto con Sabrina...siete una bellissima famiglia!
@@francescosorrentino7788 quanti bei ricordi. 🥰🥰 e speriamo di poterci abbracciare e presto conoscere la principessa di casa. 😘😘
@@alessandrasfoodislove ❤️ speriamo presto 🤞🏻
PS: is there a trick to pick out the eggplants with less seeds? Can you show us your baked ziti recipe? (if you get a chance) :-)
Hi Anne Marie, in my eggplant parmigiana video I show how to tell the make and female eggplant. The male have less seeds. The bottom is round and shallow it’s a make. Long and deep it’s a female.
Here is the eggplant video

Here is my baked ziti recipe. Semplice e delizioso.
Thank you so much.

I like fresh chopped parsley in the filling and shredded mozzarella . I don’t like fresh basil in it . Basil belongs to tomato sauce and fresh tomato salad .
@@robertlosasso4222 hi Robert,
I will certainly try it. I do add parsley in my stuffed shells.
Love love both basil and parsley. A must in italian cooking. Thank you so much for watching. 🇮🇹💕

Sorry - Alessandra! 😂
I love eggplant..I'm like you. That nasty, thick skin comes OFF when l make it. That skin makes me gag. Lol. Whenever I get it from a restaurant? The skin is on. Yuck! I totally "scheeve" that. Oh, I'm making your spaghetti /cheese/pepper tonight. I've never had that. I will let you know!!!
Good morning Susan! I’m not a fan of the skin. The batter really keeps the eggplant from absorbing oil. I’m
So excited about the cacio and Pepe recipe. You’ll love it. It has to be eaten immediately. La pasta non aspetta nessuno. Thank you always 🥰🙏🏻🇮🇹
