Ingredients:

Serving

2 1/2 lbs. eggplant
2/3 cup. olive oil
2/3 cup. fresh grated parmesan cheese
optional: 1 cup. mozzarella cheese
for the sauce
3 tsp. olive oil
2 garlic cloves, crushed
diced tomatoes
1/2 tsp. sugar
1/2 tsp. dried oregano
2-3 tsp. chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
salt & fresh ground pepper

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Trim the eggplant and cut them lengthways into 1/2 inch-thick slices. Heat the oil in a large frying pan and fry the slices briefly in batches. Lift out as soon as they are golden on both sides and drain on a plate covered with paper towels.
Arrange the eggplant slices in two or three layers in a baking dish. Sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper.
Make the sauce. Heat the oil gently in a large pan over a medium heat until hot. Add the garlic and sauté for a few seconds, then add the canned tomatoes, tomato puree, sugar and oregano and season to taste with salt and pepper.
Cover and simmer for 25-30 minutes or until the sauce is thick and velvety, stiring frequently. Stir in the chopped parsley and cook for 2 – 3 minutes.
Spread the sauce over the eggplant to cover them. Sprinkle the cheese on top and bake for 40 minutes.
Serve hot.
