I used to order Eggplant Parmesan in a little Italian restaurant in South Seattle. The fellow and his wife came over from Italy. He was the cook and she was the waitress - they lived on the upper floor. Then his business grew, the upper floor became a party room. It was the first time I had ever had Eggplant Parmesan. I thought it was meat in the recipe it was so textured. The way he cooked it was to cut the eggplant from the top to bottom instead of into rings. He lightly floured them, placed them on a cookie sheet and heated them in a 500º oven until lightly browned. Then he layered them with shredded Parmesan, Mozzarella cheese, and Maranara sauce. It looked like a big chunk of lasagna it was so nice and thick. Wonderful. The place no longer exists. I miss it. He and his wife would make unscheduled visits there to make sure every cook on every shift fixed everything exactly the same way so that no matter when you went in, you could always count on it being the same each time. They still used the red checkered tablecloths with the candle on the table in the wine bottle.

This is my personal recipe for Eggplant Parmesan:
Bread sliced eggplant with a mixture of bread crumbs and flour.
Pan fry then drain on papertowels.
Layer in the bottom of a small casserole dish.
Top with a layer of tomato sauce
Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese
Repeat theses layers until the casserole dish is full then top wiht mozarella cheese and bake just until the cheese is melted and the tomato sauce is bubbly.

INGREDIENTS

* 2 fairly large purple eggplants, peeled and thinly sliced, about 1/4". You can cut the largest slices in half to fit in your pan
* 2 eggs, beaten
* 2 cups Italian seasoned bread crumbs or as needed
* 1 large jar of spaghetti sauce, Ragu, homemade or your favorite, but not Prego, it is too sweet.
* 1 (16 ounce) package mozzarella cheese, shredded
* 1/2 cup shredded fresh Parmesan cheese, not powdered
* 1 tablespoon fresh or if you absolutely must,1/2 teaspoon of dried basil (easy to grow)

DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F

2. Dip eggplant slices in egg, then in bread crumbs. Place in refrigerator for half an hour to set. (If you don't all the breading will slide right off in the pan, and par baking leaves it dry or undercooked every time). Then pan fry in oil until golden brown on paper towel lined plate using two skillets if possible.

3. In a 9x13 inch or large oval baking dish spread spaghetti sauce to cover the bottom. Place a layer of eggplant slices in the sauce. Sprinkle with mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses. Repeat with remaining ingredients, ending with the cheeses. Sprinkle fresh basil on top and of course more Parmesan.

4. Bake in preheated oven for 45 minutes, or until bubbly and starting to brown.
