What is Baigan Choka (and recipe)?
Eggplant Parmesan is an easy, delicious was to prepare eggplant. It can be eaten as is for a low-carb dinner, or served with pasta, crusty bread or salad. While eggplant added to traditional lasagna is delicious, eggplant can be used to replace lasagna skins for a satisfying gluten free take on lasagna. Moussaka is another brilliant way to serve eggplant; it is very similar to an eggplant lasagna.
Eggplant parmesan is prepared in numerous different ways. Sometimes the raw eggplant is baked into a casserole with parmesan, mozzarella and marinara. Other times the eggplant is crusted with parmesan and breadcrumbs, fried (or baked) and then assembled with cheese and tomato sauce. To me, the latter achieves great texture in the dish. The slight crunch on the outside complimets the usually very soft inside of the eggplant. However, depending on how long it sits, it would not remain crispy because of the marinara.
