  • Use a heavy-bottomed pan to cook the eggplant. This will help to prevent it from sticking and burning.
  • Don't crowd the pan when cooking the eggplant. Cook it in batches if necessary.
  • Make sure the eggplant is cooked through before adding it to the casserole. It should be soft and tender.
  • Use a good quality marinara sauce. This will make a big difference in the flavor of the dish.
