Cooking cue

Cook eggs just until set so they stay tender instead of rubbery.

  1. Preheat the oven to 425F and line or lightly grease the pan you plan to use.
  2. 1. Trim the eggplant ends and slice lengthwise into eight 1/4-inch planks, then arrange them on two oiled baking sheets and bake at 375 degrees for 6-8 minutes per side until tender; set aside.
  3. 2. Pulse the mushrooms in a food processor until pea-sized, then sauté sliced garlic in 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat until fragrant, add the mushrooms, and cook until most moisture evaporates.
  4. 3. Stir in 1 cup marinara sauce and dried basil, simmering until the mixture thickens considerably.
  5. 4. Mix the ricotta with the beaten egg, 1 1/2 cups mozzarella, and 1/3 cup Parmesan until well combined.
  6. 5. Spread 1/2 cup sauce in the bottom of your lasagna pan, layer 4 eggplant slices, half the ricotta mixture, and half the mushroom ragù; repeat the layers and top with remaining mozzarella and Parmesan.
  7. Cook eggs just until set so they stay tender instead of rubbery.
  8. 6. Cover with parchment and foil, bake at 375 degrees for 30 minutes covered, then 10 minutes uncovered, and let rest 10-15 minutes before cutting into 8 portions.
  9. Taste and adjust the seasoning at the end, then serve while everything is hot or freshly chilled.
