Instead of noodles, it uses sliced eggplant. Eggplant has a very mild flavor, like spaghetti squash. Because it has such a mild flavor, it's easily used in recipes that have bold flavors. In something like eggplant lasagna, the eggplant flavor itself isn't even really tasted.
Instructions to make Eggplant Lasagna:
- Slice eggplant into 1 cm thickness. Brush olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Roast the eggplant for 30min in a preheated 180C fan or until brown. Flip once midway.
- Fry garlic till soft. Add chopped tomatoes, passata garlics, bay leaves, oregano, sugar, vinegar and wine. Let it simmer for 15 minutes. Stir occasionally.
- Add basil and season with salt and pepper.
- Once eggplant and sauce are done. Assemble them! Sauce, eggplant, noodle and cheese. Repeat. Your top should be sauce and cheese.
- Bake in a preheated oven of 200C for 20 to 25 minutes.
Just use your eggplant slices the same way you would regular lasagna sheets. Always coat the bottom of a casserole dish with meat sauce, then the first layer of eggplant. Layer the ricotta spread, add shredded cheese. Keep layering until the pan is full and then top with a final layer of parmesan! Top the ricotta with half the eggplant, and sprinkle basil and half the mozzarella over the eggplant.
