Eggplant Parmigiana has delicious layers of eggplant, fresh tomato sauce, basil, and melted cheese. There are variations of the dish that use bread crumbs and eggs, and everyone's family makes it slightly different. My mother shared with me her Eggplant Parmigiana recipe, which was taught to her by my Nonna Igea, her Mum. Although they may not be impressed, I did tweak it a little and in my opinion, made it even better. Hopefully, they would be proud if they tasted it!

Dangerous statement... Personally, none of my dishes is better than my mom's. I like being alive.

I read the “better than my mum“ part and am here to say Vincenzo you were an awesome guy and it was nice watching you 😂

Oh, I'm definitely making this for my husband. He loves eggplant dishes! I'm certain he'll love this. I trust Vincenzo always. There are so many BS videos that I watch where I say, "OMG, Vincenzo would cry..." ❤

I got a recipe 20 years ago from a wonderful Italian mother and this 98% the same. One of my favorites and definitely in my top 5.

This is my favorite dish! I used to always help my mom make it when I was younger. I'd always snack on the fried eggplant, too. lol

I tried this recipe last evening. I did add a layer of sliced potatoes in the middle. The recipe is amazing, so satisfying and comforting. Thank you.

Beautiful, this is my wife's favorite dish. The only thing I do instead of a colander . I use a baking sheet tray with a wire rack. After I salt the eggplant. 👍🏾👍🏾
