Parmigiana di Melanzane #dinner #italian

Parmigiana di Melanzane (aubergine parmigiana) is one of my supreme most loved genuine Italian plans. The layers of singed aubergines, mozzarella cheddar and parmesan heated together with a basic tomato sauce just has an aftertaste like paradise. There are a couple of phases of arrangement to this dish however it's everything genuinely easy and nothing beats the smell of foaming tomato sauce and mozzarella cheddar preparing in the stove, isn't that so?

I have constantly adored aubergine and have never thought that it was flat or exhausting. Aubergine resembles a vegetable wipe that douses up a great deal of flavor and making into parmigiana di melanzane is a definitive method to utilize it (as I would see it).

This formula will give you a real taste of parmigiana di melanzane yet you can make it somewhat lighter by flame broiling the aubergines as opposed to tidying them in flour and searing them. Despite everything it tastes flavorful and is an incredible method to make the dish somewhat more advantageous.

Parmigiana di Melanzane is the ultimate comfort food recipe. Fried aubergines/eggplant baked in a dish with tomato sauce, basil, parmesan and mozzarella cheese.

Ingredients

• 2 large aubergines/eggplant around (700g/ 1.5 lbs)
• 1.5 lbs (700g) passata/pureed tomatoes chunky/rustica (Chunky passata or passata rustica is pureed tomatoes with a coarser pulp texture if you don't have this then regular pureed tomatoes will do.)
• 1 white onion
• Small bunch of basil
• 8.8 oz (250g) mozzarella cheese , cut into cubes
• 3/4 cup (70g) parmesan cheese , freshly grated
• 1/2 tbsp olive oil
• flour for dusting
• sunflower oil for frying (around 1/2 litre)
• salt and pepper to season

Instructions

1. Thinly slice the aubergines removing the top and bottoms and place them in a colander. Sprinkle them lightly with salt and set them aside for 1 hour. This drains out any excess water and helps with frying.
2. Meanwhile, make the simple tomato sauce. Finely chop 1 onion and sauté in a pan with the olive oil until translucent and soft but not browned. Add the tomato passata (pureed tomatoes) and a small bunch of basil torn with your hands. Add a pinch of salt and pepper, stir then let it simmer gently for 10-15 minutes. Set aside.
3. Rinse the aubergines under cold water to remove the salt and pat them dry with a kitchen towel or paper. Lightly dust them with flour, shaking off any excess then fry them in sunflower oil for a few seconds each side, drain on kitchen paper to remove any excess oil.
4. Preheat the oven to 180°C/350F/gas mark 4. Spoon a small amount of tomato sauce into the bottom of a baking dish and spread it around, this will stop the aubergines from sticking. Next add one layer of aubergines to the dish followed by a sprinkling of parmesan cheese, cubes of mozzarella, a sprinkling of pepper and couple spoons of tomato sauce (save 1/3 of the sauce for the final layer). Continue with the next layer until you have one top layer left.
5. For the top layer, spoon over the remaining tomato sauce and top with parmesan and mozzarella. Cover loosely with foil and bake for 15 minutes, remove the foil and bake for another 10 minutes until nice and golden and bubbling on top. Let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.
