BREADED EGGPLANT RECIPES RECIPES

Steps:

• Start by draining the eggplant: layer sliced eggplant with gentle sprinkle of salt in a colander and place a plate or lid on top). The eggplant will leak out about 2 tbs. of moisture (about a half hour-sometimes I just do set it about 15 minutes and that seems to work, too).
• I lightly wipe excess salt off with damp paper towel.
• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Prepare cookie sheet/jelly roll pan with half the oil and heat in oven while dipping/breading the eggplant.
• Mix together flour and pepper and put in large Zip-lock bag.
• Mix Parmesan and bread crumbs and put in pie plate.
• Dipping process:.
• Place about 10 slices at a time in flour and shake to coat lightly.
• Dip eggplant in beaten egg (I use a cereal bowl to dip).
• Dredge in bread crumb mixture.
• Line, without overlapping, eggplant onto cookie sheet.
• Bake for about 10-15 minutes until bottoms are lightly browned, and flip and finish cooking the other side.
• Repeat with remaining eggplant.
• Remove and cool on a wire rack.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Rub a little bit of olive oil over the stew meat. Place stock bones and stew meat into the Cooking Vessel.
• Once the oven has preheated, place the Cooking Vessel into the oven. Roast in the oven for about 45 minutes. Turn the bones and meat pieces half-way through cooking, until nicely browned.
• When the bones and meat are nicely browned, remove theCooking Vessel from the oven and place it into the Cooking Base.
• Add carrots, onions celery tops, garlic, parsley, bay leaves and peppercorns into the Cooking Vessel.
• Fill with cold water, 2 inches over the top of the bones (about 8-9 cups of water).
• Close the lid. Select-SLOW COOK and set the time to 12 hours. Press START.
• From time to time check in on the stock and use a large metal spoon to scoop away the fat and any scum that rises to the surface.
• Do not stir the stock while cooking. Stirring will mix the fats in with the stock, clouding up the stock.
• Once the cooking cycle is complete, open the lid.
• Strain the beef stock through strainer.
• Serve immediately or let cool to room temperature then chill in the refrigerator. If you plan to freeze the stock, however, remove and discard the fat, pour the stock into a jar or plastic container.
