Eggplant Parmigiana

Ingredients:

• 2 quarts of Homemade tomato basil pasta sauce or your favorite jarred sauce. I like Michaels from Brooklyn Ny.

• Plain breadcrumbs that you season or pre-seasoned.
• Dry Italian Herbs, Dry Parsley
• 1 cup of Flour
• 3 eggs x 2 = 6 eggs

• 1 pound of whole milk mozzarella grated
• Parmesan Cheese

• Filling – Beat 3 eggs. Add ricotta cheese, ¾ lb. shredded mozzarella, ¼ tsp. dry parsley, ¼ tsp granulated garlic and mix with a spatula. Add a little milk if it is too thick, however, mix should soft and not runny.
• Breading – First, beat eggs and mix with an almost equal part of water. Next season breadcrumbs with salt and pepper, granulated garlic, and dry Italian herbs. Place both the flour and breadcrumbs in separate pie pans. After peeling the eggplant, you may cut in rounds for individual servings or long way through the eggplant for a casserole style. Either way, cut at least ½ inch thick. Dip eggplant in flour, then egg, then breadcrumbs and lay to the side.
• Frying – lightly fry the eggplant cutlets in canola or olive oil blend until golden brown on both sides.
• Assemble eggplant by placing sauce in a casserole dish first, followed by an eggplant cutlet, followed by the cheese mixture, then another eggplant and sauce over the top. Once you have assembled the eggplant, sprinkle with more mozzarella and parmesan cheese.
