I make a tomato sauce with pelati, garlic and onion. Slow cook untill smooth.
I build the casserole with one layer of egg plant, a couple of spoons of sauce, break few leaves of basil, mozzarella. Sprinkle of parmesan. And again and again. On top generous with parmesan.
Bake at 180°C (not critical) till browned.
Some time I avoid mozzarella and put just more parmesan.
It is a salutary version of melanzane alla parmigiana, where the eggplant slices are breaded and fried.

Thanks, Beppe. I'll try this next week. It's got to be better that what I made!
