Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Eggplant

    Slice the eggplants into 1/4 inch thick rounds and sprinkle with salt. Let them sit for about 30 minutes to draw out moisture. Rinse and pat dry.

  2. 2

    Bread the Eggplant

    Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Dredge the eggplant slices in flour, dip them in beaten eggs, and coat with breadcrumbs.

  3. 3

    Fry the Eggplant

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Fry the breaded eggplant slices until golden brown on both sides. Drain on paper towels.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Dish

    In a baking dish, spread a layer of house marinara sauce. Layer half of the fried eggplant on top, then sprinkle with mozzarella and parmesan. Repeat with another layer of marinara, eggplant, and cheeses.

  5. 5

    Bake

    Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for another 15 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and golden.

  6. 6

    Garnish and Serve

    Let the dish cool for a few minutes, garnish with fresh basil and serve hot.
