Frequently Asked Questions:
Stuffed Aubergine with Beef Recipe
Can I fry the eggplants instead of baking them?
You can do that, but then you’d have used too much oil and reduced the nutritional value of the meal. Needless to say, this defies its purpose.
What do I do with leftover stuffing?
Leftover stuffing can stay in the fridge for a couple of days without going bad. It can be used to make patties if you feel so.
