Preparation Steps
Prepare the Eggplant
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Slice the eggplants into 1/4-inch thick slices. Lay the slices on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Bake for 25-30 minutes until they are tender and slightly golden.
Layer the Ingredients
In a baking dish, start layering the ingredients. Begin with a layer of Bolognese sauce, then a layer of baked eggplant slices, followed by mozzarella cheese, and a sprinkle of parmesan cheese. Repeat these layers until all ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of cheese on top.
Garnish and Serve
Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh basil before serving. Slice into portions and enjoy!
