Melanzane Parmiggiana

For all aubergine lovers, this is a must... a wonderful appetising starter.Whenever I buy aubergines, I always buy an extra one to prepare this way. It can be eaten as a starter, a snack or if you're hungry, with maltese bread.

Ingredients


1 aubergine (brungiel in Maltese) cut in 1/2 inch discs
400g Canned Tomatos
2 cloves garlic chopped
handful of basil shredded
olive oil
parmesan cheese grated



Method

Fry or roast the aubergine disc so that they are browned and tender.
In the meantime prepare the tomato sauce by frying the garlic, add the canned tomatoes and when it starts to sizzle, season with salt and pepper and add the basil.

In a roasting dish, lay down the aubergines next to to each other.

Cover each aubergine with a spoonful of the tomato sauce.

Sprinkle with grated parmesan.

Grill for a couple of minutes untill the cheese has melted.

Serve and enjoy.
