Steps:
- Cut each eggplant into about ½-inch (1-cm) thick round slices.
- Arrange the slices in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with paper towels.
- Sprinkle the eggplant with half of the coarse salt. Flip the slices over and sprinkle with the rest of the salt.
- Put another baking sheet on top of the eggplant and place something heavy, like a cast-iron skillet, on the top baking sheet to help release moisture from the eggplant. Let sit for 30 minutes.
- Uncover the eggplant slices and pat dry with paper towels. Brush most of the salt from the eggplant with a paper towel, then transfer to a medium bowl. Set aside.
- In a separate medium bowl, combine the flour, oregano, basil, garlic powder, and pepper. Mix well.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large frying pan until it reaches 375°F (190°C).
- Coat each eggplant slice in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess flour.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
- Fry the eggplant in batches until golden brown on both sides, 2-3 minutes per side. Drain on a paper towel-lined baking sheet and pat dry using more paper towels to absorb excess oil.
- Pour about 1 cup (260 g) of marinara sauce into a 2½-quart (2 L) baking dish and spread evenly to cover the bottom of the dish.
- Add about 8 eggplant slices (it's okay if they overlap) and cover with ½ cup (130 g) of marinara. Sprinkle with a third of the fresh basil, then top with about a third of the shredded mozzarella and Parmesan. Repeat to make 2 more layers. Finish with the fresh mozzarella cheese and a final sprinkling of Parmesan.
- Bake for 30 minutes, until the mozzarella is bubbling and golden brown.
- Let cool for 10 minutes, then serve garnished with fresh basil.
- Enjoy!

Steps:
- Prep the eggplants: Generously salt the eggplant rounds on both sides. Let them sit on sheets of paper towel for 1-2 hours to draw out the moisture. Press the rounds dry with paper towel.
- Ready the oven: Preheat the oven to 425°F. Brush two sheet pans with 1 tbsp olive oil in each one.
- Assemble the dredge: Grab 3 shallow bowls or plates. Add the flour to one, eggs to the second, then breadcrumbs, Italian seasoning, and ¼ cup of the parmesan cheese to the third. Season each bowl with salt and pepper and mix well.
- Dredge the eggplant: Take an eggplant round and dredge it in flour, then dip in the beaten egg, and finally coat with the breadcrumb mixture. Place the round on one of the prepared baking sheets, and repeat with the remaining rounds. Drizzle the remaining olive oil over the rounds.
- Bake the eggplant rounds: Bake the rounds for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown. Reduce the heat in the oven to 375°F after taking the eggplant rounds out.
- Assemble: Spread 1 cup of marinara sauce over the bottom of a 9x13" baking dish. Lay half of the baked eggplant rounds in a single layer over the sauce, then top with 1½ cups of marinara sauce followed by 1 cup of mozzarella and ½ cup of parmesan. Layer the remaining eggplant rounds, marinara sauce, and cheeses in the baking dish.
- Bake: Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and browned.
- Garnish and serve: Garnish with fresh basil. Allow the casserole to rest for 20 minutes at room temperature before serving.

Steps:
- Make the sauce: In a food processor or using an immersion blender, puree the tomatoes to a smooth, creamy consistency. (If you would like a more country feel, you can wait and break them up in the pan later with a wooden spoon.)
- In a large saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until hot. Add the onion and saute 5 to 6 minutes, or until soft. Add the garlic and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until you see the color start changing. If you¿d like to make the sauce spicy, add the red pepper flakes.
- Add the tomatoes and season with kosher salt and pepper to taste. Reduce the heat to medium low and simmer for about 30 minutes. (If you did not puree the tomatoes, use a wooden spoon to break them into pieces while they cook.) Strive for balance in the consistency of the sauce. It has to be fluid, but it should not look overly wet. Add the torn basil and remove from the heat.
- Meanwhile, fry the eggplant: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Pour 2 inches of canola oil into a large heavy-bottomed pot or high-sided skillet. Heat over high heat until a deep-fry thermometer reads 360 degrees F. (You can also test by adding a small piece of bread to the oil. If it fries and browns, the oil is ready.) In a shallow dish, whisk together the flour, 1 teaspoon sea salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Working in batches of approximately 8 slices each, dredge the eggplant slices in the flour mixture and add them to the hot oil. Fry for 1 to 2 minutes each, until browned. Using tongs, transfer the eggplant to a baking sheet lined with paper towels to let cool.
- In two 9-by-13-inch baking dishes, place 1 layer of eggplant slices. Brush each with a thin layer of sauce, top with a layer of mozzarella, 2 tablespoons Parmigiano-Reggiano and a sprinkle of basil leaves. Repeat the layering two more times. Make a final layer of sauce, mozzarella and Parmigiano-Reggiano. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until bubbling and golden on top. Garnish with a final sprinkling of basil and Parmigiano-Reggiano and a small drizzle of olive oil.

10 EGGPLANT PARMESAN RECIPES - THE SPRUCE EATS
From thespruceeats.com
Estimated Reading Time 3 mins
- Classic Eggplant Parmesan. This classic eggplant parmesan recipe will make its way into your regular rotation once you taste the first bite. Sliced fresh mozzarella gives it a gooey, cheesy texture that shredded mozz just can't replicate, and either seasoned or plain bread crumbs will work to add perfect crunch.
- Gluten-Free Eggplant Parmesan. You don't have to give up eggplant parmesan if you can't eat gluten. Just swap the breadcrumbs for gluten-free flour. This recipe also includes mushrooms and green pepper, for additional flavor and texture.
- Vegan Eggplant Parmesan. No one will miss the animal products in this satisfying vegan eggplant Parmesan. Soy or other nondairy cheese, silken tofu, tahini, and nutritional yeast contribute to that savory, cheesy flavor you love, while still being perfect for vegans or those avoiding dairy.
- Slow Cooker Eggplant Parmesan. Eggplant gets coated in breadcrumbs and then sautéed before layering in the slow cooker to create a lovely, hands-off eggplant parmesan.
- Eggplant and Tomato Casserole. This eggplant casserole tastes very similar to eggplant parmesan, but just without the name (or the breading). You don't dredge the eggplant in breadcrumbs like in other recipes, so this one has fewer carbs than the traditional preparation and is naturally gluten-free.
- Authentic Eggplant Parmigiana. This authentic eggplant parmigiana comes straight from Italy, where the eggplant doesn't get breaded before assembling the layers.
- Stuffed Eggplant with Beef. If you like your eggplant with a little extra heft, try this stuffed eggplant with ground beef, tomato sauce, and cheese. It tastes similar to eggplant parmesan, but with the addition of beef.
- Greek-Style Stuffed Eggplant. This stuffed eggplant recipe tastes like a cross between eggplant parmesan and the Greek moussaka. Eggplants get halved and stuffed with cheese, tomatoes, garlic, spices, and some ground beef.
- Eggplant Lasagna with Ricotta. Some people serve eggplant parmesan with a side of pasta. With this eggplant lasagna with ricotta, you can have both in one delicious dish.
- Baked Eggplant with Feta. Give your eggplant parmesan a Greek accent by swapping out the mozzarella for feta in these easy eggplant boats. Use the long, slender ones often labeled "Italian eggplants" for this recipe, which don't have the signature bitterness that you sometimes find in other types.
