PAN-FRIED EGGPLANT WITH CHILE, HONEY AND RICOTTA



Pan-Fried Eggplant With Chile, Honey and Ricotta image

For the crispest, most burnished pieces of eggplant, nothing beats frying, and it's worth every last splattered drop of oil to get there. This dish pairs the golden spears of fried eggplant with milky ricotta cheese, fried garlic slices, red-pepper flakes and a generous drizzle of honey. You can serve it as a first course, a substantial side dish or a light main course with a green salad on the side. Note that tender, young eggplant cook a lot more quickly than denser, larger ones, and are worth seeking out here.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 pounds Japanese or other slender eggplant, cut into 3-inch-by-1-inch spears
Fine sea salt, as needed
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more as needed
5 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
12 ounces whole-milk ricotta
1 tablespoon honey, or to taste
Red-pepper flakes, to taste
Flaky sea salt, to taste
1/3 cup torn fresh basil leaves
Lemon or lime wedges, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Sprinkle eggplant lightly with fine sea salt, and let sit while you heat the skillet.
  • Heat a 12-inch skillet over medium. When hot, add oil and heat until shimmering. Pat eggplant dry if necessary, then arrange in a single layer in the skillet (cooking them in batches if necessary to prevent crowding). Fry until softened and golden brown on all sides, turning them often, about 9 to 15 minutes total.
  • Transfer eggplant as it cooks to a paper towel-lined plate, and sprinkle very lightly with more fine sea salt.
  • When all the eggplant is cooked, reduce heat under pan to low and add garlic and a little more oil; cook until just golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer to the paper towel-lined plate next to the eggplant.
  • Spread ricotta on a serving plate. Top with fried eggplant and garlic. Drizzle with honey, sprinkle with red pepper flakes, flaky sea salt and basil. Serve immediately, with lemon or lime wedges on the side if you like.

Time 1h

Yield 9

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 large eggplants, sliced into 1/2-inch rounds
1 teaspoon Salt to draw moisture from eggplant
1 pinch Salt and pepper to taste
4 large eggs eggs
4 cups panko bread crumbs
1 Cooking spray
1 (24 ounce) jar RAGÚ® Old World Style® Traditional Sauce
2 (8 ounce) packages mozzarella cheese, thinly sliced
1 cup grated parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  • Sprinkle both sides of eggplant rounds generously with salt; place on baking sheet for 15 minutes to draw out moisture. Use paper towels to blot moisture from each side of the eggplant slices. Sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper.
  • Whisk eggs in a shallow bowl. Place panko bread crumbs in a second bowl. Dip each side of the eggplant slices in the whisked eggs, then press into the panko crumbs to coat each side. Place slices on a cooling rack on a baking sheet.
  • Spray the tops of eggplant generously with cooking spray. Bake 8 minutes in preheated oven. Turn each slice, and spray the other side with cooking spray. Bake an additional 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool slightly.
  • Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees (175 degrees C).
  • To make the stacks: Cover a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place a large slice of eggplant on the parchment. Top with a spoonful of Ragu® Old World Style® Traditional Sauce and a slice of mozzarella. Place another slice of eggplant on the first; repeat the layering process until you have about 5 or 6 slices in a stack. Top with a generous layer of parmesan cheese.
  • Bake stacks until the cheese has melted, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool for a few minutes. Serve warm.
