Ingredients
1 large eggplant, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 cup diced onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon dried basil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1/2 cup dry bread crumbs
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
2 tablespoons olive oil for frying
Directions
Heat oven to 375 degrees F . Use 1 tablespoon olive oil to grease a large rimmed baking sheet. Put 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. When it’s hot, add eggplant and 1/4 cup water. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until the pieces shrivel a bit and are tender and beginning to color, 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer eggplant to the bowl of a food processor.
