I always forget something. 6. Garlic last, and only to release aroma. I am living by these now ❤ Thank you, Chef!!🎉
Anything that can bring a smile to my face and give me a good laugh first thing in the morning is a good thing. Thank you chef for another great recipe and for helping us all remember that cooking isn’t rocket science.
This is why we love you Chef Jean- Pierre!! I've bought countless kitchen tools since watching you teach us, texture is the conductor of flavour!! potato ricer, chinois, micro plainer, Tamis to name a few ❤🤩🥰 edit; and selection of your 5 most important quality knives and I make my own BUTTER!! WE LOVE BUTTER!! 😁😍🙏
Grandma and mom always breaded and fried them first then rolled and baked. That's the way I do it. Have to try this recipe for sure. Great channel, great personality, fun to watch. Even though I am a great Italian food chef, I still learn something every time I watch you. Thanks !
Eggplants are a miracle. They're the king of mediterranean cuisine. They are SO versatile, and there's absolutely no end to what you do with them, There's a nice little anecdote I heard from the elderly women of my Moroccan family - they said that in the times marriages were arranged by a match-maker, then one of the criteria for a decent bride was "how many things she can make from eggplants". I was told that with less than 40 - a girl couldn't even join the game... Dunno how true is this story, buy my late Mom, may she Rest In Peace - did WAY WAY more than 40 things with eggplants. From jams and confitures, via dozens of pickles, dozens of hot and cold "mazzettes" things like "eggplant caviar" and charcoal burned eggplants done in zillions of ways (with Tahini, with hot salsa, with spicy vinegar and garlic and herbs, with cumin,... then there came the "entreé"s with eggplant rolls, fried eggplants with sour goat-cheese (thickened yogurt) coated eggplant cubes fried, then the casserole, and the ratattouils and... well... HAIL EGGPLANTS!!! And this recipe is really great. It's relatively easy to make, and would survive really nice in the fridge until you need it - then you put it to the oven. The hard thing - to find GOOD eggplants. They must be very light (when they get heavy - its the time when they're full of those bitter water and lots of seeds). They are better when they're shiny, and still a little bluish-purplish and not completely black. There are many types of eggplants too - but all are available everywhere and most of them have short season
May your family & friends be safe since this terrible earthquake occurred. I always feel pain inside when these things happen to people. I am a victim of Katrina & know the horrors of natural disasters. Love & peace.
We're not supposed to have earbuds in at work, so I was trying to be sneaky as I listened to this. But when Chef was cutting the roll and kept saying "Oh yeah", I couldn't help but crack up. Even if he wasn't the best teacher, I'd still watch just for the comedy. He's the best.
I love to see Chef scarf down his creations hahah! Thats the BEST part of cooking! Being able to eat the delicious food you just took all that time and effort making
That silicone mat trick is brilliant. They are so easy to clean and there is no wasteful trash like when I have to use foil. I love rollatini. My stepdaughter will be visiting next month and I've been trying to think of some tasty dinners to prepare for her vegetarian palate.
I have been buying so much eggplant! Jean-Pierre! Make a Baba Ganoush and mix it 50/50 with red pepper hummus off the shelf! Then of course dress the top with pooling olive oil, paprika, sumac and parsley. SO GOOD
My son is 4 and becoming addicted to chef . He hear him speak n be like tata is that the cooking 🍳. Now he stops what he does n come watch with me. Thank u chef 😘 💓 💖
I'm sure your mom and grandma would be proud of your eggplant rollatini Chef JP. I may not be in the same kitchen as you are but judging by how much you've enjoyed the food, I can guarantee that it is a hit. ❤❤
You NEVER disappoint! I love your humor, style, and Recipes! I grew up under some of the best Sous Chefs in Reno, and you’re up there, if not better than many. I know what it IS! It’s the Love you put into it!
May I just say, this is a great channel not just because of a great chef and a fun format, but you have a really professional editor? I love the cartoons and no other channel seems to get the commercial breaks so perfect. Even the little touch of violin music when you discussed the method of microplaning the lemon zest - the comedic zoom ins when you burn your mouth - I love the details! I would have thought this was a network program it's so well done.
Thank you for the kind words! Looks like you know how much work it takes to produce a good video! Thank you for taking the time to letting us know you appreciate it! Godspeed! 🙏❤️
I love the video and the recipe, but the final cut, with Chef JP finishing his delicious creation is priceless!!! I do the same gestures when something comes out well, and I am glad I am not the only one.
I don't think i've ever seen anything dissapear so fast. Can't wait to make this wonderful dish you've created thank you for you Chef. Have an awesome day and God bless.
Tasty tasty, I love eggplant I do a few things and it’s one of my favourite veggies. I’ve done this before but on Saturday I’ll make it your way, it’s gonna be lovely with a glass of wine, yummy thank you Chef.
I made this today. Absolutely delicious. I didn't have any lemons or other citrus so I couldn't put any zest. I used grated cheddar and parmesan cheese. Thank you from Australia. I will definitely cook this recipe again.😋😋💕👍
I just made an eggplant spinach lasagna (it still had pork sausage and ground beef, just using less pasta). Used the leftovers for stuffed jumbo shells! Ricotta, mozzarella and asiago, basil/spinach, oregano.
I just love your channel! I've been watching for a number of years now. JP, I love to cook. You've made me a better cook. No other Chef compares. I even imitate your 'Taste-Test Finger Twiddle!'
Easy comfort food! Cajun ham and 15 bean soup! Just need an ONYON! And pressure cooker on chili/beans setting. I also like to add BBQ sauce and maybe some indian spice like cumin, curry etc! SO EASY If not totally cooked, simmer another hour, add the spices and leftover meat then for a stronger pork flavor.
As a vegetarian, I absolutely adore when you do veggie recipes. I love watching all your videos and figuring out how to use meat substitutes (tofu, lentil/chickpea balls and soy products usually) to make them. My favourite part is watching how much you enjoy what you do.
You are the perfect chef. Your videos are perfection. Not too long. Other shows are long and get very boring. Your recipe are so delicious. No other compare to you. ❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks to your amazing dishes and tutelage I’ve become the chef of my household! I just recently became a father, and I can’t wait to teach my son the same love of cooking! Thank you, chef! My wife and I love your videos.
You always make me smile. You help home cooks have a can do attitude. Excellent recipe that I will make. You must have been a beloved culinary teacher.
I love watching you in the kitchen. You make it look so easy and fun. You remind me of my father when he would bake bread 🍞. All five of us kids used to go crazy fighting over who would get the end slice the minute it came out of the oven. But the best part of it was spreading homemade butter onto it. It was the best. I would love for you to do a couple of shows on this subject. Hot bread 🍞 right out of the oven with homemade butter. It is so good. Dad made rye bread a couple times. These are very old memories and warms my heart thinking of it. Thank you for all the happiness 😁😁😁
In the oven as we speak and I'm so excited! I cooked eggplant for the first time a couple of weeks ago with your stuffed eggplant recipe and my wife said it was the first time she actually liked eggplant. Said she couldn't believe I've never cooked with eggplant before and that's thanks to your instruction! Can't wait to serve this to her! And I've got my thermometer set so I don't burn our tongues lol
While I love eating a wide variety of foods, I do have friends who are vegetarian, vegan, lactose intolerant, gluten free, have certain food allergies, or medical conditions which limit their diets... as a result, I have tried many new recipes at their homes and have adapted to cook/bake dishes which they can safely eat at my home. I so appreciate all of the wonderful recipes, tips, techniques, and alternatives you present in every video. I've learned so much, and have rounded out my kitchen utensils to make creating delicious meals easier. Thank You so much Chef!
For your first implementation, I'd avoid the lemon zest or cut way back on it if you aren't into strong lemon flavors. But this recipe gets my overall seal of approval. I've never had this specific dish but I'm very good at identifying what people will enjoy. If you want to have some meat and to give it some extra texture, add some pre-cooked sausage or bacon to the cheese mixture. If you want to turn up the heat, you can add a little cayenne pepper. You can always plate it on some pasta or serve with garlic bread to round out the meal.
Sounds great! I'll give a try soon. It took me quite a while to realize that Jack usually adds "off camera" stuff at the very end. Those are favorite bits of the video. Many thanks for all the smiles you bring into our days.
I love watching the fabrication of the little parts, and watching the really beat up projects come to life! I REALLY enjoyed the red truck deer damage repair! Heck man… I love everything you work on. Yours is my favorite channel now. I look forward to it every week
Chef, I never have a better day than when you have a new video and I get to watch it and just smile. Thank you so much for the quality learning and also hilarious entertainment and fun you provide each and every time. God Bless
We love you Cheff. I am addicted to your channel. Your humer, your expertise and your actions make it very enjoyable to watch. You are very humble too. Thank you.
Hello Chef Jean Pierre, Thank you for this great video. My daughter-in-law is coming to visit and she happens to be a vegetarian. This will be a perfect dish to make for her. Thank you for sharing. Best Regards to you and Jack. ❤❤
Microplane grater.... Learned that from Chef JP! BEST lesson ever in my cooking world! I stopped using mine because all the things didn't come out tasting good because I couldn't see what I was planing off. Now that I know how to use it properly, I get triggered when I see other cooking channels using it "upside down". 😛 Also, this looks AMAZING!!!! I LOVE eggplant! I love to cut them into "steaks" and season them with olive oil and garlic and then throw a tomato (not good tomatoes because our tomatoes suck as bad as yours do unless it's summer) slice on top, and some feta cheese and then grill them. Such an amazing side dish. I will be trying these for sure!
Great comment!!! I love you idea about a nice thick slice in olive oil with a tomato Ragu and feta cheese. Sounds delicious.!!!😊 I’ll be doing this in one of my recipe coming up soon!
You are my inspiration sir. Just last week I made zucchini and eggplant with your Mornay sauce and little bacon chips. Just mixed your recipes with eggplants and zucchinis. Came out delicious. And guess what - I baked them brushed with ollive oil and little garlic at 205 degrees celsius just like you did here. Strange coincidence:) Thank you. P.S. It was closer to a centimeter than 0.63 just looking at it. If it is too thin it becomes dried or burned;)
In Italy, instead of parsley , they put oregano, and no garlic. I like this with oregano. But I like more, the way you show me how to cook!!It is so humorous and comforting that it no longer seems difficult or complicated!
This is one of my favorite ways to eat eggplant. The other isn't quite as healthy but is so delicious. You peel the eggplant (no skins) and then slice the eggplant as thin as you can, about the thickness of a single layer of cardboard is perfect. Then you make an Italian seasoned bread crumb mixture or just buy some and coat each razor thin slice of eggplant and flash fry them in butter, probably 30 seconds'ish on each side or less depending on thickness. They are delicious this way, but we are not done yet. You can refrigerate them and continue later, eat them as a snack, etc. When it's time for the meal you down a blob of sauce, then put a piece of the breaded fried eggplant (I can't stress enough how removing the skin and slicing very thin is, this is not meant to be like eggplant parm. where the slices are thick), then a slice of Meunster cheese, that's right, meunster (who'd have thunk it), keep alternating the eggplant and the sliced meunster as high as you'd like. A good two to three inches makes a very filling hearty meal. Then you put your favorite tomato based sauce on top and bake it in the oven until nice and hot (everything is already cooked). Then devour it!
Good afternoon Chef J-P, in general egg plant is a very versatile vegetable. We can cook it in so many ways and it always tastes good. I enjoy the break crumb method yet this Rollatini I think is much better. You really enjoyed the flavour of this dish. But you know what, you like punishment, why, because you know cheese in any dish stays hot for a long time, and you have to be very careful as it stays sort of solid it does not break up easily in the mouth. I knew what was coming you just had to start dancing in that square and the scene would have been complete, almost like a native Indian. Regardless, thank you so much for sharing this recipe, I am sure to make it. I also like the suggestion of the green and yellow squash. Vegetable are so easy to prepare and you can add so much other vegetables to a dish as you wish. Thank you again for sharing, take care, kind regards.
I had eggplant on a room service dinner I ordered about 25 years ago. Don’t know what it was but it was delicious. I’ve had it a few times since and never cared for it. Actually thought it was awful. I’ve been wanting a recipe using eggplant for a long time. I’ll definitely try this one. I make my own infused olive oil. I use garlic, thyme, and rosemary. I use it a lot. It’s really nice on steaks.
OMG! This recipe is AMAZING! Going from sad purple vegetable to delicious mouthwatering meal using lemon! WOW. Thank you for sharing. This recipe makes me buy more eggplant / zucchini or squash veggies and actually enjoy them by adding lemon. Who knew adding lemon would make such a difference?! I greatly enjoyed eating it - hot and cold! Thank you again.
Some of these recipe names sound so fancy, but they really aren't difficult to make at home. I know what I'm making for dinner this weekend. Thank you for sharing these delicious recipes with us. ❤️
I have some eggplant seedlings that sprouted up yesterday, I cant wait to try this in summer with homegrown tomatoes! Thank you very much chef for all the knowledge you have taught me :)
Loved eggplant the way my mother made it. Am going to try your recipe. Looks sooo good. As a child learned much from watching my Mother cook. In my old age now I’m learning from you. Thank you.
I LOVE Chef Pierre. I can't stop watching his cooking shows. Such a big personality.
🙏🙏🙏❤️
I love him he makes me forget about my problems and brings me joy
Uh
REMEMBER:
1. Onyo is always "number first UNLESS there's bacon."
2. Measure CAREFULLY.
3. Butter makes everything better.
4. Keep it in your freezer; it will last for 17 years.
5. Mis en place.
6. I always forget something.
6. Garlic last, and only to release aroma.
I am living by these now ❤
Thank you, Chef!!🎉

In Italy, instead of parsley , they put oregano, and no garlic. I like this with oregano. But I like more, the way you show me how to cook!!It is so humorous and comforting that it no longer seems difficult or complicated!
This is one of my favorite ways to eat eggplant. The other isn't quite as healthy but is so delicious. You peel the eggplant (no skins) and then slice the eggplant as thin as you can, about the thickness of a single layer of cardboard is perfect. Then you make an Italian seasoned bread crumb mixture or just buy some and coat each razor thin slice of eggplant and flash fry them in butter, probably 30 seconds'ish on each side or less depending on thickness. They are delicious this way, but we are not done yet. You can refrigerate them and continue later, eat them as a snack, etc. When it's time for the meal you down a blob of sauce, then put a piece of the breaded fried eggplant (I can't stress enough how removing the skin and slicing very thin is, this is not meant to be like eggplant parm. where the slices are thick), then a slice of Meunster cheese, that's right, meunster (who'd have thunk it), keep alternating the eggplant and the sliced meunster as high as you'd like. A good two to three inches makes a very filling hearty meal. Then you put your favorite tomato based sauce on top and bake it in the oven until nice and hot (everything is already cooked). Then devour it!
Sounds delicious, thank you for sharing! 😊
I enjoy eggplant and glad to see you have several recipes for it.
Love the "Dining" moment you added here Jack...the Chef is my favorite and a go-to for me. God Bless you all and God Bless America!
Thank you for explaining things
Another beautiful creation Chef!
Good afternoon Chef J-P, in general egg plant is a very versatile vegetable. We can cook it in so many ways and it always tastes good. I enjoy the break crumb method yet this Rollatini I think is much better. You really enjoyed the flavour of this dish. But you know what, you like punishment, why, because you know cheese in any dish stays hot for a long time, and you have to be very careful as it stays sort of solid it does not break up easily in the mouth. I knew what was coming you just had to start dancing in that square and the scene would have been complete, almost like a native Indian. Regardless, thank you so much for sharing this recipe, I am sure to make it. I also like the suggestion of the green and yellow squash. Vegetable are so easy to prepare and you can add so much other vegetables to a dish as you wish. Thank you again for sharing, take care, kind regards.
Love the way you bake the eggplant vs frying. Turned out so good! Keep the good recipes coming!
I had eggplant on a room service dinner I ordered about 25 years ago. Don’t know what it was but it was delicious. I’ve had it a few times since and never cared for it. Actually thought it was awful. I’ve been wanting a recipe using eggplant for a long time. I’ll definitely try this one. I make my own infused olive oil. I use garlic, thyme, and rosemary. I use it a lot. It’s really nice on steaks.
OMG! This recipe is AMAZING! Going from sad purple vegetable to delicious mouthwatering meal using lemon! WOW. Thank you for sharing. This recipe makes me buy more eggplant / zucchini or squash veggies and actually enjoy them by adding lemon. Who knew adding lemon would make such a difference?! I greatly enjoyed eating it - hot and cold! Thank you again.
I can’t wait to make these. Stopping for some fresh veggies on way home today. Thank you friend. ❤
Beautiful low carb recipe. Sil mat for a cover: Why didn't I ever think of that? I can almost taste it.
Eggplant and zucchini are both delicious! This looks like an excellent recipe! - Thanks Chef JP - Cheers!
Some of these recipe names sound so fancy, but they really aren't difficult to make at home. I know what I'm making for dinner this weekend. Thank you for sharing these delicious recipes with us. ❤️
I have some eggplant seedlings that sprouted up yesterday, I cant wait to try this in summer with homegrown tomatoes! Thank you very much chef for all the knowledge you have taught me :)
Loved eggplant the way my mother made it. Am going to try your recipe. Looks sooo good. As a child learned much from watching my Mother cook. In my old age now I’m learning from you. Thank you.
looks wonderful. I make mine with homemade ricotta.
I’ll be making this tomorrow! Thank you Chef!
