Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 200°C; lightly brush the eggplant slices with oil and roast on a tray for 15–20 minutes, turning halfway through until tender and golden.
  2. Meanwhile, mix the ricotta with the sun-dried tomatoes, basil, salt and pepper to obtain a homogeneous preparation.
  3. In a dish, assemble the mille-feuille by alternating a slice of eggplant, a layer of ricotta, repeat for 3–4 layers; finish with a slice of eggplant and sprinkle with parmesan.
  4. Bake for 8–10 minutes to heat everything and lightly brown the parmesan; let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
  5. Cut into portions and serve with a drizzle of olive oil and a few fresh basil leaves.
Variants
  • Add chopped olives or capers for an extra salty touch.
Tips
  • Do not overload with ricotta to avoid a mille-feuille that slides; lightly press the eggplant slices if they release too much water.
FAQ
