1/4 to 1/2 c.
2 c. (16 oz.)
8 oz.
1/2 c.
medium eggplants

  • Peel eggplants and cut in 1/2" slices.
    Sprinkle with salt. Spread out on board
    or paper towel. Let stand 20 minutes.
    Pat dry with paper towel.
  • Mix flour, salt, pepper; dip each eggplant
    slice in mixture.
  • Saute slices in olive oil. Cooking quickly
    over medium hight heat will keep eggplant
    from absorbing a lot of oil. Drain on paper
    towels. Continue cooking eggplant slices,
    adding more oil if necessary.
  • Pour 1/4" tomato sauce in bottom of greased
    2-qt. casserole dish. Top with one-third of
    eggplant slices, one-third of remaining
    tomato sauce and one-third of cheeses.
    Continue layers. Cover and bake in hot
    oven (400 degrees) for 20 minutes. Remove
    cover and continue baking 10 minutes.
