Aubergine parmigiana
- Age: 12–18 months (Family food)
- Texture: Family meal
- Prep: 12 min
- Cook: 45 min
- Makes: 2 adults and 2 children
Ingredients
- 2 aubergines, sliced
- 400 g passata, no added salt
- 100 g mozzarella
- 3 tbsp parmesan, grated
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- a handful basil
Contains: Milk
Method
- Brush the aubergine slices with oil and roast at 200 °C for 20 minutes until soft.
- Layer with passata, basil and cheeses in a dish. Bake 25 minutes.
- Cut your child's piece small and cool; salt the adults'.
Safety: Cool your child's portion — the centre holds heat. Serve your child's portion first, then salt the rest for the adults.

Tip: Aubergine cooked this long is silky. The cheeses carry all the salt the dish needs.
