ABOUT THE DISH
Melanzane alla parmigiana, or aubergine parmigiana, is a dish emblematic of the Italian south. In the sunny climes of regions like Apulia, Campania and Sicily, aubergines are widely cultivated and enjoyed as a nutritious and filling crop. Aubergines were first introduced by the Arabs, who, for a time, held sway in this part of the world, but most notably in Sicily, where arabesque architecture can still be found to this day, as well as other influences from its exotic and chequered history. 

The parmigiana, perhaps the most documented aubergine dish, sees slices of aubergine layered alongside plenty of cheese - traditionally mozzarella and Parmesan, though other local cheeses, such as scamorza, a sort of smoked mozzarella, or Grana Padano can also be found. Our version comprises both mozzarella and Grana Padano, alongside tomato sauce and seasoning. This rustic dish is primarily to be enjoyed as a contorno, or side dish, but, for those with more modest appetites, can also make for an amply sized main.

Awful

More sauce than veg. Aubergine cut way too thickly and grilled instead of fried. Not good at all. Theres a better version Ocado sells in the frozen section

Rich tomato sauce

I bought this in a flash, having read the other reviews cooked for extra 5 mins which thickened the sauce to right consistency. Really rich lovely tomato sauce, really good size portion for 2, it did have a lot of parmesan cheese through it so didn't feel the need to add any extra cheese.

Not worth £8.50

Bought this on flash sale so it was a good value , but as some other reviewers said it doesn't have much cheese .I added a sliced cheese and ate it. Nice tomato sauce but it didn't feel anything special. Also the cooking instruction is odd -it keeping calling this dish "pasta" .This is not pasta at all .

Curates Egg

Great flavour but we found the aubergine undercooked for our taste despite giving it slighty longer cooking time. Also, expensive at full price.

Waste of money

Nothing like the real Parmigiana. The aubergines are cut far too thick and they are cooked raw. In the Parmiggiana they should be fried or grilled. The tomato sauce has big chunks of tomatoes and there is very little cheese in it. I expected a lot better from Pasta Evangelista, especially at this price point.
