You cannot break men’s hearts by jesting with them, or telling them a smooth tale, or pronouncing a gaudy oration. Men will not cast away their dearest pleasures at the drowsy request of one that seems not to mean as he speaks, or to care much whether his request be granted or not. If you say that the work is God’s, and He may do it by the weakest means, I answer, It is true, He may do so; but yet His ordinary way is to work by means, and to make not only the matter that is preached, but also the manner of preaching instrumental to the work.

INSTRUCTIONS

Slice the eggplants vertically into 5mm. thick slices. Sprinkle them with
salt and allow them to rest for 20 minutes then rinse away the bitter
juices and pat the slices dry. Set aside.
Heat the olive oil and saute the garlic and diced onion until golden. Add
all the tomatoes, brown sugar, salt and pepper to taste and tomato paste
and simmer for 1 hour until thick and well flavoured.
Meanwhile, mix the flour and parmesan cheese in a shallow dish and beat the
eggs and place these in a separate shallow dish. Dip each eggplant slice
into the flour mix, shaking off the excess then dip into the beaten egg.
Heat extra oil in a shallow frypan and fry the eggplant slices until golden
on both sides. Continue frying all the eggplant slices.
Place a small amount of tomato sauce in 6 ovenproof dishes then place a
layer of eggplant over. Add another layer of tomato sauce then top with
some sliced basil leaves and mozzarella cheese. Continue layering tomato
sauce, basil leaves, eggplant slices and cheese until all the ingredients
have been used, ending with the parmesan.
Bake at 210&deg;c. for 30 minutes or until very hot and bubbling. Serve
immediately.
