Spicy peanut eggplant salad is a really fine thing and something completely different. I had already told you that I am currently looking for recipes that are as full as possible. It is important to me that they are as rich as possible in valuable vegetable proteins, fiber, vitamins and minerals. When it comes to salads, most people think of a classic green salad with a little tomato and cucumber. Since I’ve been eating a plant-based diet, I’ve eaten so many delicious salads that have little to do with a classic salad. Ready for an Asian-inspired salad with subtle peanut butter dressing? Then let’s get started together now.
Spicy eggplant salad with peanut butter dressing
Let’s start, with our delicious dish. First, the eggplants are cut into cubes together and put in a large bowl with the chickpeas, oil, salt and mix well. Then it’s off to a baking sheet and the mixture is roasted in the oven for 30 minutes. Continue with our dressing made with peanut butter, oat milk, sesame oil, rice vinegar, tamari, maple syrup, lemon juice, garlic granules and ginger. This is all made into a fine dressing. I use my Blendtec for this purpose. Finally, I add everything together: Roasted eggplant and chickpeas, green onion, edamame and the dressing.
TIP: The salad should definitely be well done, at least 4 hours or preferably overnight. When it’s all freshly mixed together and still warm, I don’t find it as tasty.
Hearty vegan salads
I love salads like this because they bring a nice change of pace to everyday life. By the way, my favorite way to eat this eggplant salad is on a toasted piece of sourdough bread. But here you can also combine other dishes with it, let your creativity run wild.
Eggplants, by the way, are a wonderful vegetable that should quietly end up on our plates more often. The nightshade plant is full of important nutrients, such as potassium, calcium, magnesium and copper. It also contains folic acid, is low in calories and has hardly any fat. Perfect, therefore, for all those who like to eat healthy full.
TIP: If you like, you can also make the recipe completely oil-free, just omit the olive oil for roasting in the oven, as well as the sesame oil in the dressing. This is possible without any problems, because the peanut butter already provides a lot of healthy and wholesome fats.
