Eggplant Parmesan
Method
Prepare the eggplant: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Lay the eggplant slices on a baking sheet and sprinkle with salt. Let sit for 15 minutes, then pat dry with a paper towel.
Bread the eggplant: Dip each slice into breadcrumbs, pressing lightly to coat. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake: Bake the eggplant slices for 20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.
Assemble the dish: In a baking dish, layer marinara sauce, baked eggplant, mozzarella, and Parmesan cheese. Repeat until all ingredients are used, finishing with cheese on top.
Bake again: Bake for 20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Serve: Garnish with fresh basil and serve warm.
Pair with spaghetti or garlic bread.
