Provided by craftsks1

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 eggplant, cut into 3/4-inch slices
8 tablespoons olive oil
8 ounces ricotta cheese
6 ounces Mozzarella cheese, grated
1/2 ground meat in sauce
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
1 egg beaten
1/2 cup fresh basil, chopped
4 cups pasta sauce

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F in a medium bowl mix ricotta, Mozzarella cheese and 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese. Mix in one egg and basil. Stir well. Set aside. Cut up the eggplant slices, and in a large skillet, heat 4 tablespoons olive oil over medium heat. Add bread crumbs to a medium bowl and flour in another bowl, and in a third bowl add 1 beaten egg. Dredge the eggplant first in flour, then egg and finally the bread crumbs. In the pan, brown the eggplant on both sides, and remove to a plate lined with a towel to drain. Cook in batches until all eggplant is cooked. In a 9x13-inch baking dish, evenly spread 1 1/2 cups of spaghetti sauce. Arrange a single layer of eggplant slices on top of sauce. Top the eggplant with 1/2 of the cheese mixture. Repeat layering process until all the eggplant and cheese mixture is used. Pour remaining sauce on top of eggplant layers, and sprinkle with remaining Parmesan cheese . Bake 30 to 45 minutes in the oven, until sauce is bubbly. Let cool 5 minutes and serve hot.
