A Better Way to Cook Eggplant

Print Recipe

Ingredients
  

  • 1 large eggplant cut into cubes
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon nutritional yeast
  • ¼ teaspoon salt add after roasting, optional

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss the eggplant with smoked paprika, garlic and nutritional yeast (no salt yet). Let it sit for 10–15 minutes. Spread on a lined tray in a single layer and roast for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway, until tender with lightly browned edges.
  • Remove from the oven and add salt if desired.
  • The result is soft but not mushy, with a deeper flavor that feels much more balanced and satisfying.
