Mom Tips

Item two of the preparation method is necessary to remove the bitterness from the eggplant.

In item six of the preparation method, you can add finely chopped green scent.

It is important that you cut the eggplants into slices of the same thickness. Also, the oven must be well heated.

If you prefer, replace the cornmeal with a mixture of 1½ cups of breadcrumbs and 2 tablespoons of grated Parmesan cheese. Season this mixture with black pepper, salt and oregano or fine herbs.
