Eggplant Parmigiana

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Eggplant Parmigiana is synonymous to eggplant Parmesan. This is a rich and delicious baked eggplant dish that can be enjoyed everyday.

This Eggplant parmigiana recipe is interesting because I tried to fry the eggplants until the texture becomes crisp. I also used lesser marinara sauce on top. This will help the fried eggplants on the top layer maintain its texture because less liquid will be absorbed. Of course, the ones below will absorb the sauce and all its delicious flavor. This means that you can enjoy the best of both worlds.

I like to eat this with garlic bread. How about you? What do you like to eat with your eggplant parmigiana?

      Hi Charles, it should only be beaten egg — no mixture. I have corrected the step by removing the word “mixture” to avoid confusion. Thanks for bringing this to my attention.
