Frequently Asked Questions About Eggplant baked with Kaşar cheese
How do you make eggplant baked with Kaşar cheese?
Eggplant baked with Kaşar cheese is made by baking eggplant until tender, topping it with grated Kaşar, then returning it to the oven until the cheese melts. Add tomato, garlic, or herbs if you want a saucier, more seasoned version.
What is eggplant baked with Kaşar cheese?
Eggplant baked with Kaşar cheese is a baked eggplant dish finished with Kaşar, a Turkish cheese that melts well. It can be served as a side or a light main, and recipes may use sliced eggplant or stuffed halves.
Why does eggplant baked with Kaşar cheese turn watery?
Eggplant baked with Kaşar cheese can turn watery when the eggplant releases moisture or the baking dish is crowded. Roast the slices with space between them first, and drain excess liquid from any tomato topping before adding it.
When should you add Kaşar to eggplant baked with Kaşar cheese?
Add the Kaşar near the end of baking, once the eggplant is tender. Putting cheese on at the start can leave it overbrowned or dried out; a final bake gives it time to melt and lightly brown.
Do you need to salt eggplant for eggplant baked with Kaşar cheese?
No, salting is optional for eggplant baked with Kaşar cheese. If you want to draw out moisture or your eggplant tastes bitter, salt the cut pieces briefly, rinse them, and pat them thoroughly dry before baking.
Can you make eggplant baked with Kaşar cheese without frying the eggplant?
Yes, eggplant baked with Kaşar cheese works well with oven-roasted eggplant instead of fried slices. Brush the pieces lightly with oil and roast until tender before adding the cheese; this avoids a greasy texture while still giving the topping time to melt.
What should you serve with eggplant baked with Kaşar cheese?
Serve eggplant baked with Kaşar cheese with rice, bulgur, or crusty bread, plus a crisp salad to balance its rich topping. A spoonful of plain yogurt also works well, especially when the dish includes tomato and spices.
Can eggplant baked with Kaşar cheese be made ahead?
Yes, you can prepare eggplant baked with Kaşar cheese ahead by baking the eggplant and adding any sauce, then refrigerating it covered. Add the grated cheese just before the final bake so it melts freshly rather than drying out during storage.
How do you keep eggplant baked with Kaşar cheese from getting soggy?
To keep eggplant baked with Kaşar cheese from getting soggy, roast the eggplant in a single layer and let steam escape rather than stacking slices. Use a thick tomato sauce, if any, and avoid covering the dish while baking.
Can you freeze eggplant baked with Kaşar cheese?
Yes, eggplant baked with Kaşar cheese can be frozen, although the eggplant may soften and release moisture after thawing. Cool it fully, pack it airtight, and reheat from thawed in the oven for a better texture than microwaving.

What is Eggplant baked with Kaşar cheese?
Eggplant baked with Kaşar cheese is a simple Turkish home-style dish: tender eggplant is baked with grated or sliced Kaşar on top, until the cheese melts and browns lightly. It can be made with rounds or halves, depending on the cook and the size of the eggplant.
The eggplant turns soft and mellow, while the cheese adds a savoury, creamy topping. In Turkey it may be served hot as a vegetable side or a meze, alongside bread and other dishes; it also works well as a light main with a salad. Eggplant contributes fibre, while the cheese and cooking oil make the dish more filling. For a lighter version, bake the eggplant with just a little oil rather than frying it, and keep the cheese topping modest.
