Melanzane (Aubergines in tomato and cheese)















Tanya's thoughts:
~Wipes the drool from her mouth~. Yes this is one of my favourite dinners. James's mum Sue normally makes this. So I've have made this a few times now and generally follow Jamie Oliver's recipe:http://www.jamieoliver.com/recipes/pasta-recipes/melanzane-alla-parmigiana-aubergine but instead of frying/griddling the aubergine slices, I boil them for about 4 mins. This is Sue's method and I think it definitely makes the aubergine less tough and makes the whole texture of the dish become more lasagna sloppy (meant in the best possible way). Would be good to know other people's serving suggestions for this. We normally have it with a green salad, nice bread with plenty of different flavoured oils to dip the bread in.

James's verdict:
"Very tasty."
