7 Reviews of Shrimp Stuffed Eggplant (Aubergine)

I am so grateful to your dad for sharing this recipe w/you so you could share it w/us & thx for posting that great pic! I admit I feast w/my eyes & the pic looked too good to ignore. I found it as I was looking for a stuffed eggplant recipe to make as a side dish w/lamb meatballs & potatoes, but thot (rightly so) this dish should stand alone as a main course. I could wait for the meatballs, but not for this. I used Icelandic baby shrimp & made 2 chgs. I used Feta because I did not have swiss cheese. I also added 1 tsp of cinnamon, having learned when I made Timbale of Eggplant and Ground Lamb by Chef Kate how truly wonderful it is w/eggplant. We loved this dish & the cinnamon flavor worked again. TY for another eggplant taste sensation!

    It is the first time I decide to buy and cook eggplant. I used to hate it whenever my parents were trying to shove it down my mouth when I was young. I LOVED IT !I adapted this recipe to my Weight Watchers program to make it points and healthy directions friendly. I measured 2 teaspoons EVOO to get my healthy oils for each portion, I used reduced fat cheese, except for the parmiggiano-reggiano (Which I got in Italy. The true thing !) and use 6 ounces of shrimps (about a full cup) to get a full portion of lean protein instead of just half. I found out the points equivalences for 1 portion and it is a high 10 points, but it's very filling and it is a great meal if you want to impress the in-laws =P Rest was as is and it was delicious.

    This is absolutely awesome. Followed the recipe precisely except that I sauteed some celery with the veggies. This will become a household regular. Nice job Red Apple Guy!

    This was absolutely wonderful and not greasy as most eggplant dishes usually are.. This will be a favorite in my home!

    This is really very good. I doubled the recipe and it was a main course for us (my eggplants were on the small side). I added in a small sweet pepper and a small chili pepper. I did not use as much cheese, and what I did use was a combination of Parmagiano-Reggiano and Emmenthal (true Swiss). Otherwise I made this as written. Whenever I buy eggplant, I never quite know what to do with them. We're already talking about making it again! Thank you!

    I have done quite a few of the recipes on this site but never felt to rate. My family absolutely loved this! Even my picky daughter ate all of hers. We had this as a main course and will be a regular. This one is a keeper!

    LOVED IT! Even my picky DH who DETESTS aubergines, finished his portion! I did not include the cheese this time (since it was optional) and the only extra ingredient I added in was a generous pinch of dried red chilli flakes. Another winner.. thank you, Red Apple Guy! Made for PAC '07.
