The sauce
  1. Step 1
    Heat 3 tablespoons of olive oil in a small pan and gently fry the garlic clove. Add the passata. Season with salt and pepper and allow the sauce to simmer for about 15 minutes.
The eggplants
  1. Step 2
    Wash the eggplants, cut into thin slices, spread out on a baking tray or work surface and season with salt. After about 20 minutes, dab off any excess water with kitchen paper.
  2. Step 3
    Then dredge the eggplant slices in flour and deep-fry in vegetable fat at 170 degrees until golden brown on all sides. Then drain on kitchen paper.
The casserole
  1. Step 4
    Spread a ladleful of the sauce over the base of a casserole dish. Spread a layer of eggplants on top. Then spread diced mozzarella on top, a few basil leaves and some grated Parmesan.
  2. Step 5
    Repeat the process several times. Sprinkle the last layer with Parmesan.
  3. Step 6
    Bake in the oven at 180 degrees for 30 minutes until golden brown.
