Aubergine and Parmesan Lasagna
Goody Kitchen
This exciting, contemporary recipe takes inspiration from two Italian dishes (lasagne and parmigiana) to produce a delightful vegetarian meal. The grilled aubergine slices add a meaty, robust element to the dish and work brilliantly with the layers of fresh pasta, herby tomato sauce and cheesy bechamel in this aubergine and parmesan lasagne.
