- 1 x 1-lb aubergine, cut crosswise into 1/4-inch slices
- 1/4 c. Dry white wine
- 1/2 Tbsp. Basil
- 1/2 Tbsp. Oregano
- 1 can (16. ounce) unsalted tomato sauce
- 1 can (14/15-ounce) unsalted diced tomatoes
- 1/2 can (6-ounce) tomato paste
- 1 lrg Clove garlic, chopped
- 2 Tbsp. Water

- 1/2 c. Wholegrain dry breadcrumbs*
- 1 tsp Italian blend seasoning
- 2 Tbsp. Fresh grated Parmesan
- 1 1/2 c. Shredded reduced-fat/fat-free Mozzarella cheese combo
- Place sliced aubergine in 4 equal stacks on a dishtowel or possibly paper towels; set a large dinner plate on top of the aubergine and stack books or possibly another heavy object atop to help squeeze out moisture, about 30 min.
- Meanwhile, combine next 7 ingredients in saucepan and bring to boil; reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, about 20 min.
- Spray a large cookie sheet with cooking spray.
- Combine breadcrumbs, Italian seasoning, and Parmesan in a shallow dish big sufficient around for the aubergine slices to fit into.
- In another similar dish, combine egg white and water.
- Dip aubergine slices in egg white mix and then dredge in crumb mix.
- Broil half of the aubergine on prepared cookie sheet 5 min on each side or possibly till browned.
- Pour half (see note) of the tomato mix into a greased 8" or possibly 9" glass or possibly ceramic dish or possibly stainless pan.
- Arrange broiled aubergine atop sauce.
- Broil remaining aubergine.
- While the aubergine is broiling, sprinkle half the Mozzarella over aubergine in the pan.
- Top with remaining sauce.
- Arrange second batch of aubergine over which, and top with remaining cheese.
- Bake at 350 degrees about 30 min or possibly till bubbly.
- Let stand 5 min before serving.
- NOTE:This recipe is very saucy.
- You might considering reducing the tomato sauce to just 8 ounces, or possibly preparing as directed and taking out 1/2 to 3/4 before using in the recipe and saving it for some other purpose.
- * I make my own wholegrain breadcrumbs by saving end crusts from my wholegrain breads or possibly any pcs which get too stale to eat.
- I put them on a cookie sheet and dry them in a very slow oven.
- When completely dry, I throw them in a bag and store till I have many slices to work with.
- Then I break the slices in chunks and throw them in my blender till in fine crumbs.
- Then I store airtight.
