Mini Eggplant Parmesan Appetizers

Submitted by Joel Lafond, Executive Chef with the Shaarey Zedek Synagogue Catering Department

 

Yield: Approximately 12 Appetizers

 

A quick and simple appetizer that looks good and tastes great. We recently served these at a function and they were very well received.

 

Ingredients

2

Large Eggplants

500 ml (2 cups)

Your Favourite Tomato Sauce

50 ml (3 1/2 tbsp)

Parmesan Cheese

375 ml (1 1/2 cups)

Mozzarella or Provolone Cheese or combination of both

4

Large Eggs

250 ml (1 cup)

All Purpose Flour

500 ml (2 cups)

Panko-Style or Regular Bread Crumbs

Salt and Pepper

 

Method

Cut eggplant into thick slices. You should get about 6 out of one eggplant.

 

Cut slices into rounds using a round cookie cutter just slightly smaller than the slices. This makes each one uniform and gets rid of the peel.

 

Dip eggplant rounds into bowls of well-seasoned flour, egg wash and bread crumbs and sear in a pan of hot oil or in a deep fryer.

 

Once they have cooled, you can top each piece with 45 ml (3 tbsp) of tomato sauce, followed by a sprinkle of parmesan cheese and, finally, 30 ml (2 tbsp) of mozzarella or provolone cheese.

 

Bake on lined baking sheet at 350°F for about 7 minutes or until cheese is melted and slightly browned.

 

Serve on your favourite platter as appetizers or with other Italian dishes as part of a meal.
