Ingredients

  • 1 medium eggplant sliced
  • 1 egg beaten with 2 tablespoons milk
  • Dried Italian bread crumbs
  • Olive oil
  • 6 ounces tomato paste
  • 6 ounces white or red wine
  • Pinch dried oregano
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 clove of garlic, crushed
  • 1/2 pound mozzarella, sliced
  • 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Slice washed eggplant 1/2-inch thick. Dip slices into the egg mixture and then into the bread crumbs, coat well. Grease a cookie sheet with olive oil. Arrange each slice of coated eggplant in one layer on the cookie sheet and drizzle each piece with olive oil. Bake in the oven for about 15 minutes. Check that the slices are golden brown, turn then and bake for another 15 minutes. They should be browned on both sides. Set aside.

In a small saucepan dilute the tomato paste with wine. A good mix is a can of paste and a can of wine. Add the oregano, salt, pepper, and crushed garlic. In a baking dish arrange browned eggplant slices in 1 layer. Spread 2 tablespoons of sauce on each slice. Layer each eggplant with a slice of mozzarella and sauce until all is used. Top with Parmesan cheese and bake for about 20 minutes. Serve hot.

    An excellent recipe which far exceeded the recipe I had used previously. I was skeptical about the amount of wine in the sauce but it was excellent. I may have applied the first layer of sauce to the eggplant too thick, but I did not have enough for a second layer on all but about a third of the eggplant slices. As for the comments on the bitterness, I had no issue with bitterness. The bitterness issue may have more to do with picking the right eggplant.
    On my second try at this recipe I used twice as much tomato paste in the sauce and added about 3 more ounces of wine. I had plenty of sauce to go around.
