I made this for my husband and he loved it! He is Italian and he was use to eating with the bread crumbs but now he really loves this way.

Dear Laura,

Great recipe, how can i store sauce on my freezer, bags, cups ? And how do i defrost it when it's time to use it ?

Thank you.

[Silkenrain]

Sorry, I love most of your recipes. But I assure you that you don't wanna use any meatsauce for parmigiana, it must be regular TOMATO sauce. Greetings from Sicily

@gcwohltmann thanks for experimenting. I can't have meat now and really wanted to try it with Marinara Sauce. Will try this recipe on Saturday. Trader Joe's here I come. :). Will let you know how it went.

[Tahirah7]

I wanted to make this for dinner and the first thing that came into my mind for Italian food was your channel! thanks so much for your delicious recipes :)

[stargirlvictoria]

just wondering, why do you put the flour on the eggplant first then the egg?

[DivinityBleu]

@stargirlvictoria

Because it's battered and not breaded. =)

[liquidyou]

Lett me get this straight because I think I may have missed it. Is this THEE authentic way to make Eggplant Parmesan in Naples?

[CinamorrolCutie99]

@liquidyou Yup, eet ees :) 

[chicadelrey]

I loved this recipe!

[gcwohltmann]

Excellent eggplant parm. Daughter-in-law is a vegetarian (she does eat eggs and cheese) so I used marinara sauce. I peeled the eggplant and cut the slices uniformly with a mandoline. I did use olive oil and made sure I heated the oil slowly and never more than on a medium flame so it wouldn't smoke. Everyone absolutely loved this dish. I will also try it with meat sauce, but it was excellent using prepared Trader Joe's marinara sauce.

I was wondering what is a cheese that could be used to replace Parmiggiano Reggiano. I live in a small city and a chuck of that is a lot of money. It was like $30 for a 8oz block. I have a 5 person family so that to much money. thanks

[riddiculus123]

what if i am not eating eggs?

Can you give some vegetarian version?

Thnx.

[WilliamTelevision]

@riddiculus123 That's vegan, not vegetarian.

[riddiculus123]

@WilliamTelevision : No way eggs are vegetarian. Only dairy products like cheese, milk etc. fall under the category of Vegan. Eggs are laid by birds so technically they fall under the category of being non vegetarian. You can look it up if u r not sure!

[WilliamTelevision]

@riddiculus123 it's the ovule. That's fine, since it's not meat.

Laura. U rock Girl!!! I love to watch u cook! All of it looks so yummy and easy. You have an awesome personality! Love to cook with you. I just made the egg plant parmesan- and it was SOOOO Godo Outstanding. My hubby absolutely Loved it! Two Thumbs Up!

[seattwa]

Meat sauce?? Laura, I've watched many of your videos, but I can't agree with the meat sauce.

This dish is my favorite (yes I'm Italian, New York city) and I've been eating it for 30 years. In that time, and many EPs in many different restaurants in several different states I have never had it made with meat sauce. I'm not saying it's not good, I don't know. Just never heard of it.

[curmudgeon86]

I hope I'll see you on FoodNetwork in near future!

[arroyovega19]

[omyusuf1985]

[Xiia0Sn00pY]

technically this is like a vegetable lasagnia?

[Esunshine71]

looks delicious

[Samarra2]

Looks absloutely delicious! When I make this dish, I always used to salt all the eggplant slices (or "degorge") but I think that's mainly reserved for the larger eggplant since the smaller ones tend not to be as bitter. Or am I completely mistaken???LOL

[luvingg]

Great recipe Laura!
