Tender slices of fried eggplant are wrapped around an oozing center of ricotta and mozzarella cheese, topped with tomato sauce and baked in this meatless entree.Eggplant seems to be one of those vegetables that folks either like or dislike. I have friends and family members who tell me that they find the texture of eggplant very unpleasant, but it is a vegetable I have always enjoyed using in my kitchen. The simple eggplant is an extremely versatile vegetable, and because its flavor is subtle, it can be used in many preparations and combined with many other ingredients. One of my favorite Italian dishes has been Eggplant Parmesan since I enjoyed my very first bite, probably over 40 years ago. This dish when well made can be extraordinary, although there are many heavy, greasy fried versions that simply miss the mark.
