Eggplant Parmigiana:Peel eggplant' cut into 1/4 " rounds. Dip in egg wash then into italian bread crumbs.Heat skillet to medium low heat add small amount of olive oil or vegetable oil and place eggplant slices into oil and brown on both sides.This process has to be done in batches till all slices are browned. Place on paper towels to absorb some of the oil.I use 3 to 4 medium eggplants for this recipe.In a glass 13x9 oven dish place a layer of eggplant in the bottom and cover with a bottled sauce such as Ragu or Prego thick and chunky. I prefer the latter.Spread a small amount of sauce on the bottom layer then add a layer of Parmasan cheese. You can also add in a few mushrooms, black olives etc.before the cheese.Keep layering till you reach the top. Cover with Mozzarella. Place in a pre-heated 350 degree oven for 35 to 45 minutes.Here are a few pics of the finished product.
