Tried this recipe and my husband asked me to keep it! It’s the best eggplant recipe we’ve tried and we’ve tried a good number to find one we would enjoy. Thanks!

I have relied on your site for years and never commented (shame on me) and I know the Eggplant Parm will be superb!

Depending on region, some people roast the aubgerine rather than pan fry. I much prefer the texture and less oily taste. I also always salt and sweat them before roasting.

My wife. who is in love with breaded American Italian style, devoured it and the topic of breading never came up. baking eggplant this way yeilds the most scrumptious eggplant. And yeah, we use our favorite bottled sauces, Rao for one, so this is easy, cheesy and fun..

When I make anything with eggplant, I always salt the slices and let them sit for 10 minutes.

Next step: rince them off, then put them in the oven for a few minutes to dry off.

After that, they’re ready to be oiled up and put back in the oven.

I had never attempted an Eggplant Parmesan before. I looked through several recipes and yours really caught my eye. I omitted the onions (they are not for me!) and had to make a couple substitutions but otherwise followed your recipe. I didn’t have mozzarella so used Swiss cheese. It gave a nice tang! I will definitely make this again!

It’s so light without all the oil and breading

In the sauce I used a bit more garlic and omitted the onion.
I used lots of fresh basil in the sauce as well as in the layers of eggplant/ mozzarella.
A “keeper “ recipe . Thank you
