Eggplant Parmesan 🍆🍆🍆

2 cups seasoned breadcrumbs

4 cups pasta sauce
3 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
2 cups shredded Parmesan cheese
 🍆🍆🍆🍆🍆
Pat salt onto both sides of eggplant slices.
Set to drain in a strainer for about an hour.
I then lightly rinse off the salt and blot the eggplant between layers of paper towel to dry.
🍆🍆🍆🍆
In a bowl, put breadcrumbs.
In another bowl, whisk eggs and milk.
🍆🍆🍆
Before frying the eggplant, put 1 cup of the pasta sauce on the bottom of the pan.
Spread around to coat the bottom of the pan.

 Take the eggplant slices and dip in the egg mixture and then the breadcrumbs.
Lightly fry at medium until browned on both sides.
I can get 3 slices at a time in my frying pan.
Transfer to your baking pan that has pasta sauce on the bottom.
Top each slice with a tablespoon or so of sauce and a bit of each cheese.
I fit as many slices on the bottom as I can and then I stack them with sauce and cheese between the layers.
🍆
Finish up with a bit more sauce and cheese.
Bake for about 30 minutes at 375*F
I do broil for 3 or 4 minutes at the end to complete the browning of the dish.
