Tips for a good recipe for stuffed aubergines in a airfryer

  • The first thing you should do is cook the aubergines, Although it seems like a long recipe, it saves a lot of time if you do things while they are cooking.
  • When the minced meat sauce already has the fried tomato added, I recommend you try it to correct acidity and salt
  • To cook the meat I have chosen to let it cook for a few minutes with white wine but you can do it with red wine or not add any at all
  • Watch the final cooking time because depending on the quantities you can burn the cheese which will be on the top layer
  • Choose the smallest aubergines so that all 4 parts can fit (2 aubergines) from a single batch in the airfryer

Substitution of ingredients

  • Minced meat โžก๏ธ Vegan minced meat (it would become a vegetarian recipe, and if you remove the egg it becomes vegan too)
  • Onion โžก๏ธ I do not recommend that you remove it, but you can add some minced garlic to enhance the flavor of the sauce or chopped green pepper
  • Egg โžก๏ธ It is quite optional and you can make it curdled or cook it separately and add it in pieces
  • Shredded mozzarella cheese โžก๏ธ Any type of grated cheese you like you can add it and even a few small pieces of blue cheese if you are a big fan
  • Fried tomato โžก๏ธ Natural tomato s/a (It is much healthier and I use it when I have more time because it needs to cook more time on the fire)
  • White wine โžก๏ธ Red wine or add nothing (the option of not adding anything is the healthiest)
