Cooking method

• Many years ago on some forum I found a recipe for such ajapsandal by the author Milena (thanks to her !!)
• Before that, I had never heard a word like that, but having cooked it, I literally fell in love and now I do it often.
• I used to do it in a saucepan on the stove, but since we now have such a device, which, although I scold because of some shortcomings, I nevertheless use it often.
• And yet, I cut all the vegetables on an alligator slicer, what a pleasure it is !!! Even an eggplant, although I already had it a little wilted. Naturally, I cut it into pieces that go into the slicer.
• So, we clean and cut all the vegetables. Potatoes are better in layers, the rest is as you like.
• We start to collect. We take out the stirrer.
• Pour some oil on the bottom and lay out a layer of potatoes.
• Then a layer of eggplant.
• Then a carrot with pepper. Onion.
• Add each layer and pepper.
• Sprinkle everything with rice, not thick. Like this
• 
• Rice somehow softens the taste of all vegetables, makes the dish more tender.
• Now add a layer of tomato.
• And again - potatoes, eggplant, onions, carrots and peppers.
• I forgot the bow today (((
• Top with tomatoes, garlic and herbs on them, oregano and basil are a must !!!
• 
• Pour a little oil and add the tomato along the wall to the last layer.
• Don't forget to salt each layer !!!
• At first I put the multicooker program on level 2, but I had to be harder, because it boiled for a long time.
• As it boils, you need to go to level 2 and for 30 minutes. At the end, I put it on the oven for a few minutes to brown the top.
• Do not stir in the process !!!!!!
• 
• It turned out very tasty !!!

Lerele,
I'll do it today - everything seems to be there, greens, however, only dry

[Antonovka]

Antonovka, my oregano is also dry, I often make it with dry herbs, so everything will work out

[Lerele]

Lerele, thanks for the recipe, the word is so difficult !!! 😀 I liked the dish because it is not difficult to cook and does not need to fry. Hearty and dietary. The photo is cool, delicious. I'm going to try cooking one of these days. No stirrer, right?

[Ava11]

Ava11, oh, I didn't, of course without a stirrer !!!
She added that the stirrer must be removed.
Thank you!!!

[Lerele]

Lerele, thanks for the new word on my family's menu! I will definitely cook such a dish, because it fully matches our tastes.

[gala10]

gala10, try it, tasty and simple, satisfying.
I put the cutlets for my husband, and I eat it myself, I don't need anything to him.

I've never tried it with rice Thanks for the idea!

[Kara]

Kara, but I haven't tried it without rice

[Kara]

Kara, but I haven't tried it without rice

Well, actually, in classic ajapsandal And rice is not provided There is only ajapsandali with or without meat

[Lerele]

Lerele,
Did it - delicious)) But it turns out I did this before and my dad did it - only without potatoes))) And I did not know that this is called such a beautiful word)) Thank you, Larelka, for the recipe and for the description of the technology - I will still do it))

I am sitting at work, finally my body woke up - I want to eat, but Aljapsandal is at home

[Antonovka]

Antonovka,
And without potatoes, it’s not that, although in principle it’s a vegetable stew, only without frying and with rice.
And I had to take to work with me, it turns out a lot

[Lerele]

Lerele,
Thank you, VERY tasty, only I cooked the rice separately and mixed it before serving
Good proportions and soft potatoes.

[Lerele]

Lerele,
I can't even look at the food at 7 in the morning, now very soon I will go home for lunch and eat))

[brendabaker]

brendabaker,
Antonovka, and I, too, in the morning nothing, but in the evening I always want to eat

and at what point to add meat if done with it?

[InnaT.]

InnaT.what meat ??? This is a dish without meat, you can serve it as a side dish, like I have for cutlets, or just eat it, it's hearty and tasty.

Well, actually, in classic ajapsandal And rice is not provided There is only ajapsandali with or without meat

that's why I asked

[InnaT.]

InnaT., I already wrote in the recipe that I took the recipe on some forum from a resident of Georgia. And they probably do it there with rice too.
I will not argue, because I myself learned the recipe not so long ago.

this is the recipe 🔗

[InnaT.]

Wikipedia - Ajapsandali (Georgian აჯაფსანდალი) or AjapsandaInnaT., if you want the option with meat, then first stew the meat until half cooked, then add the vegetables. Without meat, this dish is essentially a European saute, the distinctive feature is perhaps the spices.

Lerele, I wrote my comment not in order to offend you or somehow badly respond about the recipe. I really have not tried this dish with rice, it will surely turn out very tasty. Only it won't be ajapsandali anymore. It will be sautéed with rice.
It's like making rice with apples, for example, and calling it "Uzbek pilaf"

And without potatoes, it’s not that, although in principle it’s a vegetable stew, only without frying and with rice.

This is absolutely true!

And if to be completely honest, then utskho-suneli, Imeretian saffron and cilantro (dried or fresh) are added without fail to ajapsandali

[Kara]

Kara, arguing about recipes and cuisines is a thankless task. Because the same dish may differ not only in the name, but also in the ingredients.
Or be called the same, but the composition may be different.
Take the cutlets, stuff like that, but the additives are different, and they take different liquid.
And pilaf how many recipes.

I didn't even think to argue with you, I just told you what a real ajapsandali is, and how this dish differs from a vegetable stew.

[Kara]

Kara, well, okay, let it not be real, but delicious

[Lerele]

Lerelethanks for the delicious dinner
The only change I made, I fried the eggplants, it turned out very tasty

I wanted to clarify the amount of rice, if possible, then in grams, my rice is not noticeable at all, I was afraid to pour it

[Mark's mom]

Mark's mom, three-quarters of a glass, recipe from Milena. I sprinkled it on the eye.
I am very glad that I liked it

[Lerele]

Lerele, of course, I poured one third of the glass, next time I will add

Thank you

[Mark's mom]

Mark's mom, rice will not spoil anything, it will absorb liquid from vegetables, it will become delicious.
Well, satiety will increase.

[Lerele]

Lerele,
I have already cooked it twice, really with rice it tastes softer and softer.
And very good proportions of vegetables.
(I read somewhere that in translation from Turkish ajapsandal means something like * ah, how wonderful *, and ajapsandal with meat is called gyuvech).

[Lerele]

Lerele, yes, I was just guided by the photo, it seemed that quite a bit

I'm a reinsurer, now I'll pour it more boldly

[brendabaker]

brendabaker, Hurrah!!! It also tastes good to me with rice, there is not much liquid, it absorbs it and there is less harshness too !!
Mark's mom, pour it in, it will be delicious !!

And yet, I cut all the vegetables on an alligator slicer, what a pleasure it is !!!

What is your alligator? plastic?

[GruSha]

GruSha, yes, 6, 12 mm and a slicer, it is also plastic.

Thank you
