Parmesan cheese eggplant

Aubergines à la parmesane

L’aubergine c’est vraiment le légume de l’été par excellence, et même si la saison est un peu décalée cette année (comme tout les fruits et légumes d’ailleurs), c’est encore l’occasion de profiter de ce légume dont on ne sait parfois pas quoi faire ! Et pour en profiter, voici un plat que j’avais envie de vous faire découvrir (au cas où vous ne connaissiez pas !), les aubergines à la parmesane. Un plat typiquement italien, dont je vous livre ma version, composé d’aubergines, de tomates et de fromage. A servir en plat unique, oui car c’est quand même pas mal nourrissant, and to make in advance if possible because it is even better reheated.

So run quickly to the market to look for eggplants, personally I bought some again this morning to make this dish again, because Monsieur and I really loved it !  So if you have any left, it doesn't matter, it will be even better the next day (or I'm waiting for your invitation !) !
