BAKED EGGPLANT PARMESAN



Baked Eggplant Parmesan image

Eggplant slices are coated with bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese and baked between layers of tomato sauce and mozzarella cheese for a filling Italian-inspired meal. Add fresh garlic and basil to taste. I use 2 to 4 cloves fresh garlic and 5 to 10 leaves of freshly harvested basil in the sauce. Fresh basil layered in one of the layers adds lots of 'fresh' flavor!

EGGPLANT OMELET (TORTANG TALONG)



Eggplant Omelet (Tortang Talong) image

Torta is "omelet" and talong is "eggplant," but this Filipino dish is more like an egg-battered cutlet eaten for breakfast or lunch.

Provided by Nicole Ponseca

Categories     Philippines     Eggplant     Summer     Fall     Breakfast     Brunch     Dinner     Egg     Quick & Easy

Yield 2-4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 large Asian eggplants (about 1/3 pound/155 g each)
2 extra-large eggs
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons picked cooked crabmeat (optional)
Fish sauce, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the broiler.
  • Lay the eggplants in a single layer on a baking sheet and broil them, flipping once or twice, until they are soft and blackened on all sides, about 15 minutes. (If you have a gas stove, you can do this by holding the eggplants with tongs over a burner on medium-high heat, turning them so they blacken on all sides.)
  • Place the softened eggplants in a ziplock bag. Set aside for 10 minutes to steam (this makes the skin easier to peel). Peel the eggplants, discarding the skins, and use a fork to gently flatten the flesh.
  • Put the eggs in a shallow bowl. Beat well and season with salt and pepper.
  • In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Dip each eggplant in the beaten eggs, letting it soak for a second or two so that it is well covered with the egg. Season the egg-dipped eggplant with additional salt and pepper and place it in the skillet. Repeat with the other eggplant, making sure there's room between them in the skillet. Place 1 tablespoon of the crab (if using) on top of each eggplant, pressing it down with a fork.
  • When the eggplants are crispy and browned on one side, 4 to 5 minutes, flip them over and cook until browned and crispy on the second side, about 3 minutes more. Transfer the eggplants to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
  • Serve hot or at room temperature, with fish sauce.

Time 3h5m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 pounds large eggplants, sliced lengthwise into 1/4-inch slices
2 tablespoons coarse salt, or as needed
5 cups vegetable oil for frying
2 tablespoons flour for dredging
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

3 cloves garlic, halved
3 (15 ounce) cans tomato puree
8 leaves fresh basil leaves, halved
salt to taste
1 ½ (16 ounce) packages fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced
2 ½ cups freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Place a single layer of eggplant slices in a colander sitting on a plate and sprinkle with coarse salt. Cover with a second layer and sprinkle with salt. Repeat with remaining eggplant.

Cook, stirring often, until sauce starts to thicken, about 20 minutes. Remove sauce from heat. Discard garlic and stir in remaining 4 leaves basil.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  • Slice the eggplant evenly: This will help it cook evenly. Use a sharp knife to slice the eggplant into 1/2-inch thick slices.
  • Salt the eggplant slices: This will help to draw out the bitterness. Sprinkle the eggplant slices with salt and let them sit for 30 minutes. Then, rinse the eggplant slices and pat them dry.
  • Use a nonstick skillet: This will help to prevent the eggplant from sticking. Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and add the eggplant slices.
  • Cook the eggplant slices until they are tender: This should take about 5-7 minutes per side. Flip the eggplant slices halfway through cooking.
  • Add the eggs and cheese: Once the eggplant slices are tender, add the eggs and cheese to the skillet. Cook the eggs until they are cooked to your liking.
  • Serve immediately: Baked eggplant omelet is best served hot. Garnish with fresh herbs, such as parsley or basil.
