Eggplant Parmesian

This is my interpretation of Eggplant Parmesan that I created after watching Bobby Flay. It is a medium-difficult dish that produces a very delicious result that is Restaurant Standard in my opinion.

Ingredients:
Half an Eggplant
One Egg
Panko Breadcrumbs
Dried Italian Herbs
Flour
1/4 white onion, finely chopped
Chopped Garlic
A lot of Canola Oil
Romano Cheese Grated
Mozzarella Cheese Grated
Parmesan Cheese Grated
Prego Sauce
Oregano
Thyme
Black Pepper
Salt

Steps:
First Start off by preparing your ingredients for deep frying the egg plant. First slice the Egg plant into slices, keeping the skin on the eggplant to give it a more natural flavor. Then Get some flour and put it onto a plate and Cover both sides of the Egg plant in the flour. Get a Bowl and beat one egg, then get another plate and mix together Breadcrumbs and dried Italian Herbs.











Then Put the Slices of egg plant covered in flour into the Egg and then the breadcrumbs, making sure that the outer layer is even and covered.

Then get a Big Pan and Fry Oil until hot. Drop the Slices of Eggplant into the Oil and fry both sides of the slices until golden brown and fragrant. Then Plate the slices and Pat it with a paper napkin to remove excess oil.












Now to preparing the Tomato Sauce that is in between each layer of eggplant and cheese. Start by sautéing the onions and garlic in oil, until they are golden brown and fragrant. Then add in the Prego Sauce to the The pan and fry until it starts to boil. Then add Thyme and Oregano to the sauce.


Now Get a pyrex and Cover the bottom a layer with the fried egg plant. Then cover that layer with some of the Tomato Sauce and Spread it about. Then cover that layer with the Grated Romano Cheese.

Then Cover it with another layer of Fried Eggplant, Then Tomato Sauce and then the Mozzarella Cheese.

Then Cover it with the Final layer of Fried Eggplant, Tomato sauce and then Parmesan Cheese.











Then Bake the Pyrex in the Oven on 150 degrees F for 20 minutes. Then Serve.

Voila, You got Eggplant Parmesan. A dish that is incredibly delicious and only takes some time to finish. Bon Appetite.
