Recipe Notes

Recipe Notes The onions add sweetness to the sauce. If you want to skip the onions, add a teaspoon of sugar to balance out the acidity in the tomatoes. To impress guests at a dinner party, purchase round molds and stack the eggplant, cheese and sauce in the individuals molds before baking. © Galley Chef All Rights Reserved
