This melanzani (pronounced: 'melon-johnny')recipe is OK but to make it more authentically Italian/Sicilian do this: omit or add to the mozzarella topping Parmesan Cheese, a light dusting of black pepper and if you have it on hand, oregano prior to baking. Saute separately 4 to 6 finely minced cloves of garlic until golden and at the last quarter of the cooking time, pull out the baking sheet and sprinkle the garlic on each slice. PS: Depending on thickness of the eggplant slices this will take up to 30 minutes to bake in some cases. The way I make this dish is to low cook them in extra virgin olive oil in a cast iron skillet flipping them as they cook and transferring them to a paper towel covered plate but the parmesan (and the garlic) is not added until they are transferred because the cheese would stick to the pan and burn while making a sticky, gooey black mess!
This was awful, and we threw it out and made a frozen pizza. Ir was not that it was tasteless, it was that it was sour and unpleasant.
It's better than I thought it would be. And SO easy!! A get dinner on the table quick meal :) The only thing I will do next time is peel the eggplant because the peel is a little tough.
This was a great recipe! My husband and I are trying to eat healthier and I must admit we were skeptical about the eggplant. It really was delicious though--definitely making this one again!
This was a hit with our picky toddlers last night, def going on the repeat list.
It was excellent; what I appreciate it seeing other comments and followed the one with olive oil vs. pam spray on the eggplant and then dip it in the bread crumbs or I would suggest a bit of both with butter and olive oil and mix with bread crubs. Great recipe I added angel hair pasta on bottom, then red sauce on here, and eggplant, was good....and if you want veggie broccoli in bowl too; good. Thanks!!
