The Queen of the recipes

Newsroom: Truceklan!


Hello we are the Truceklan group!
We chose this topic because one of our class mate is very good at preparing this dish, and sometimes he makes us taste it (we are very lucky!)
This is his mother's recipe. We asked her if she could give it to us: at the beginning she did not want but later she decided to share it.

Ingredients:
- 1.5 kg of eggplant
- 3 eggs
- 150 grams of flour
- 500 g of tomatoes
- 1/2 onion
- A few leaves of basil
- 1/2 cup of oil
- 300 grams of smoked cheese
- 150 grams of grated Parmesan cheese
- salt
- oil (extra virgin olive oil)

How to prepare Parmigiana
To prepare the sauce soften the onion in oil, add the chopped tomatoes, just before finishing the cooking, add the basil and season with salt.
Slice the eggplants lengthwise, with a 2.1 cm thick, dip in flour, beaten eggs with a little salt and fry in oil.
In a baking dish greased with oil throw a ladle of tomato sauce, forming a layer of eggplant, a handful of grated Parmesan cheese, a ladle of sauce, mozzarella slices, another layer of eggplant and so on. Finish with the tomato.
Bake at 180 degrees for forty minutes.
A variant provides that eggplants are grilled instead of fried. In another, the eggplants are peeled and rolled in whole wheat flour, beaten egg and again in flour, making the dish look like baked pasta, because the eggplants treated in this way become almost unrecognizable.
