Eggplant Parmigiana

Eggplant Parmigiana

By

My own version ~ more like a lasagna

  • 1 medium eggplant, cut across into 1/4” slices *
  • The peel has the strong eggplant flavor, so if you like that,
  • leave the peel on. For a more subtle flavor, peel eggplant first
  • 1/2 cup flour
  • 2 tsp. garlic powder
  • 3 tsp. chopped or dried oregano
  • 3 tsp. chopped fresh rosemary (plus 1 fresh sprig, if possible)
  • 1 cup Italian bread crumbs
  • 1 large egg, lightly beaten
  • 2 About 2 cups marinara style sauce (Homemade is perfect, but I
  • also like Bertolli’s Roasted Garlic, in a jar)
  • olive oil
  • 8 oz. sliced fresh buffalo mozzarella (regular REAL mozzarella
  • will work too, but not quite as good)
  • 8 oz. shredded Provolone cheese
  • 1/4 – 1/2 cup grated Parmesan or Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
