This aubergine parmigiana recipe is a brilliant vegetarian alternative to a lasagne. Get stuck into layers of slow-cooked tomato and aubergine - yum!! Seems like an awful lot of salt.
To get started with this particular recipe, we have to first prepare a few components. You can cook vegetarian parmigiana using 4 ingredients and 7 steps. Here is how you can achieve it.
The ingredients needed to make Vegetarian parmigiana:
- Make ready Tomato sauce - I make mine from 2 tinned tomatoes or use passata

- Get 2-3 handfuls Parmesan cheese grated

Cheeses from a specific location need to follow a consistent recipe to be recognised as having specific names. In the case of Parmigiano-Reggiano, or Parmesan cheese, this means always using animal rennet.
Steps to make Vegetarian parmigiana:
- Cut the aubergines in thin strips - as much the same thickness as possible
- Grill them under the grill - this step is essential to remove water from the aubergines. Following the classic recipe You should leave the slices with rock salt under a cloth for an hour allowing the water to escape ahead of cooking. I rarely have time for this step
- In an oven dish with a tiny bit of oil at the bottom start by layering the aubergine so that it covers the bottom
- Add 1/2 of the tomato sauce or passata on top covering the aubergines
- Sprinkle some Parmesan and then the mozzarella
- Repeat another layer and finish with tomato, Parmesan and some mozzarella
- Cook in the oven for 20 min at 180-200 degrees depending on your oven

The Better Food Company in Bristol stocks some tasty vegetarian-friendly Parmesan-like cheese. Heat the oil in a large frying pan (or wide saucepan), add the garlic, thyme and sage, and cook gently for a few mins. Chances are, it was made with animal rennet, an enzyme that helps milk separate into curds and whey. That's because, according to EU law, Parmesan must contain just three ingredients: milk, salt, and—yup—animal rennet.
