BAKED CHEESE CRUSTED EGGPLANT
WE grew a small white Mohican eggplant this year. They are about 6 inches long. This is an easy, healthy, and very tasty way to prepare them. Panko is a form of breadcrumb. The bottom of the eggplant comes out crispy and dark brown the top is lightly toasted. Try it with standard eggplant let me know how it was.

- Cut the aubergine (eggplant) into thin slices. Aim for each to be around 4-5mm thick, but it doesn't matter too much - just try to get the slices fairly even so they cook at the same rate.
- Lightly spray a baking tray with oil, and lay out the aubergine slices in a single layer. Cook under the grill (broiler) on a medium heat for 2-3 minutes each side, until soft (but ideally not yet crispy). You may need to cook the aubergine in 2 or 3 batches if the slices won't all fit on one baking tray.
- Boil the pasta in plenty of water until cooked al dente, then drain. Mix the tomato sauce with the pasta.
- Lightly spray a baking dish with oil (mine measured around 8 x 8 inches, but it was a tight fit!), then layer up the tomato pasta, the cooked aubergine slices, the three cheeses, and the basil pesto. The exact order of the layers doesn't matter, but this is the order I used:1/3 of the aubergine slices;Smear of basil pesto;1/3 of the pasta;1/2 the mozzarella;1/3 of the cheddar;1/2 the parmesanI repeated this sequence twice, then finished with the remaining pasta, aubergine slices, and cheddar cheese.
