This was my mother-in-law's favorite dish at Wyatt's. We had to travel out of town to the S&H Green Stamp Redemption Center and we would always have lunch at Wyatt's. She got this every time along with the Fish Almondine. I am posting this recipe in her memory.

Overall, I thought this eggplant dish was pretty good. The eggplant was tender and the sauce was flavorful, but I found it to be a bit too oily. I would probably make it again, but with less oil.

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. The eggplant was cooked perfectly and the sauce was very flavorful.

I followed the recipe exactly and the results were disappointing. The eggplant was dry and the sauce was too acidic. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

This eggplant dish is a keeper! It's easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. I love serving it with a side of rice or pasta.

I'm not a huge fan of eggplant, but this recipe changed my mind! The crispy coating and flavorful filling made for a dish that I couldn't get enough of.

This recipe was easy to follow and the results were amazing! The eggplant was tender and flavorful, and the sauce was the perfect complement. I highly recommend this dish.

Meh. I found this recipe to be bland and uninspired. The eggplant was mushy and the sauce was watery. I won't be making this again.

This dish was a hit at my dinner party! Everyone loved the crispy eggplant and the tangy sauce. It's definitely a recipe I'll be keeping in my rotation.

Not bad! The eggplant was a bit too oily for my taste, but the flavor was spot-on. I'll try it again with less oil next time.

I've tried many eggplant recipes, but this one takes the cake! The eggplant was perfectly cooked, and the sauce was rich and flavorful. I'll definitely be making this again.
