Ingredients
2 medium eggplants 2 tbs Kosher Salt
1 cup Panko
1 cup Italian bread crumbs2 eggs
4 cups shreeded mozzarella
1 cup shreeded parmesan
Marinara Sauce (see meat lasagna recipe and make the sauce minus the meat)
Cut the eggplant in 1/2 thick circles and salt them on both sides. Lay eggplant on single layer of paper towels and cover with an additional paper towel for about 2 hours (more if you have time).
After the eggplants have sat for a while pat down with an additional paper towel so it takes most of the moisture out and removes some of the salt.
Preheat oven to 375
Whisk the eggs in a large bowl and place the panko and breadcrumbs on a plate. Coat eggplant with egg and then drench in panko/breadcrumbs. Place on cookie sheet and bake about 15 min and then turn and bake 15 more min. At this point I ended up frying the eggplant for less than a minute on each side to get it crispy.
Preheat oven to 400
In a 9x13 pan put a layer of marinara sauce and layer eggplant, mozzarella cheese, and parmesan cheese. You should have 2 layers of eggplant. Bake for 20 minutes or until cheese on top is melted and begins to brown.
Your ingredients do not have any cheese, which could be very misleading.
ReplyDeleteYou could make a thin batter with white flour with a little salt & Pepper in it. Dip your eggplant slices in the batter & pan fry them.
Thank you. I have added the cheese to the ingredients list.
