This was very time consuming and was a huge let down. The sauce I would make again very tasty.. The eggplant was very slimly and made the pasta bad. I would not recommend this to anyone.

Timballo/Timpano, is the ultimate comfort food!
Timballo OR Timpano, meaning 'drum', is an elegant,
impressive, & extremely versatile Italian dish.
Usually served for any celebration - holidays
(Easter & Christmas & family gatherings! We would
also prepare this dish for a picnic up in the Alps OR
for a day at the beach. Easy to prepare, but time
consuming. A Timballo/Timpano filling is composed of:
pasta/rice, sauce (Tomato &/OR Bechamel, meat
(OR meatless, vegetables, legumes & cheese encased in
a 'drum' (crust of baked pasta (traditionally, BUT,
I've used eggplant, meat, rice, portobellos, phyllo
pastry OR yeast OR pastry dough as my 'crust' as well.

These looked really nice and I broiled the eggplant the night before to save prep time on serving day. I used my own (bland sauce and the flavor was not that great. I will try again leaving the skin on the eggplant for appearances.

This was an outstanding dish and totally worth the effort. I served it with shrimp sauteed in wine, butter, garlic, sun dried tomatoes and basil. I will definitely make it again.

This was the best pasta dish I've ever had, and that's saying A LOT. I'm also not the most gifted in the kitchen, and this is such a simple, elegant recipe that produces the most AMAZING results. Looks beautiful and tastes fantastic!
