Hi Alia, this week I prepared this recipe. Very practical and delicious. Thank you for sharing it. Paula

[cookingwithalia]

glad you enjoyed it :-)

Alia, I suggest that you steam the egg plant to keep its flavor and vitamins and instead of using vinegar, use lemon juice. Also u can add 1 shopped bell pepper first in the pan till it becomes little tender then add the other ingredients. It tastes really good.

[cookingwithalia]

great suggestion! thanks!

[romaysae09]

zaalouk you add lemon not vinger and thank you dough

[cookingwithalia]

Actually you could do both. Some recipes use lemon juice, and others vinegar. the goal is to add some 'acid base' to the dish to give it that kick.

cheers :-)

Alia is doing great job, funny how some people dispute her recipes, Moroccan food can be prepared in many way the most important is the end result ,Alia managed to make it easy and simple for all of us. For the people who criticize her methods, why don't they show us what they can do by posting a video? Wriouna Hnt ye dikoum.

@elfilalysamira the size of the eggplant is not important the important is to use 1 pound of eggplant or 1/2 Kg

Nice...

I baked mine so no mashing was required and added seasonings to taste (not exactly). I like it and will definately be doing it again.
