3. Preheat your oven to 400 F and start getting your oil hot while you’re breading the eggplant. Drop those bad boys in and let them fry until golden on both sides. It’ll take a few minutes each side. Those potato flakes hold up well in the oil. Drain on a rack over paper towels. 1. Put down about 1 1/2 cups sauce in a large sheet pan. Strategically place eggplant on top of sauce. If you’re lucky, they’ll fit nice. If not, jam them in. Give a healthy dose of Parmesan (fresh if possible) then cheddar.
4. Place in oven for roughly ten minutes or until cheese has melted to your satisfaction. *Some recipes will have you ladle sauce on the eggplant prior to placing it in the oven. You can, if you want to sacrifice crispness.
5. Serve over pasta of your choice. I had a huge pot of sauce that I made prior. You’ll have to account for extra sauce to sauce your pasta. Garnish with green onion and freshly shredded cheese.
