- Ingredients:
- 1 eggplant
- 1/2 cup milk
- 3/4 cup all purpose flour
- 4 tablespoons bread crumbs
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 garlic cloves minced
- 3 ears of yellow corn
- 3 zucchini squash
- 15 cherry tomatoes
- 1 cup purchased Marinara sauce
- 8 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
- optional: salt and pepper to taste
- First:
- Cut 4 round 3/4" thick slices from the eggplant. Pour the milk into a large plate or baking pan.
- Soak the eggplant in the milk, turning to keep each side wet while preparing the other vegetables.
- To prepare the succotash:
- Cut the corn kernels from the cob. Quarter the zucchinis lengthwise and then cut them crosswise into 3/8"
- pieces. Quarter the cherry tomatoes. Put 2 tablespoons of the olive oil into a hot frying pan or wok over
- medium heat. Put in the garlic and saute about 15 seconds and then put in the corn and zucchini. Saute
- turning frequently for 5 minutes. Add more oil if necessary. It should be al dente. Add the tomatoes and
- cook for one minute. Cover, set aside and keep warm.
- To prepare the eggplant
- Mix the flour and bread crumbs together and spread out evenly on a plate. Press each side of the eggplant
- rounds into the flour mixture to coat evenly. Do not shake off excess. Put 2 tablespoons of the oil in a hot
- oven proof frying pan over medium heat. Put in all 4 pieces of eggplant and saute each side for 3 to 4
- minutes. They should be slightly under done. Spoon 1/4 of the Marinara sauce over each piece and top
- with two tablespoons of the Parmesan cheese. Set the oven to broil (high) and place the oven rack near the
- top. Place the pan of eggplant on the rack and broil until the cheese is melted and the marinara is hot.
- To serve
- Place the eggplant in the center of each plate and spoon the succotash evenly all around.
