Aubergine Parmigiana

I am addicted to this dish. Aubergine is the ultimate vegetable to me. It works well in hearty food and has such a distinct flavour. My grandfather used to love thin slices of aubergine battered and fried, sprinkled with salt and served with a little chutney on the side as an aperitif. Very Mauritian! For me, I just love layer upon layer of eggplant stacked high with tomato sugo and melty cheese. So that's what we have done. This works well with so many of our meals such as the Boeuf Bourguignon, Chicken Chasseur, Stuffed Chicken Thighs, Chicken Marbella, Tarragon & Lemon Chicken, Beef Cheeks, Potato Gratin and more. Serve bubbling hot and pull this apart with gusto!
