- Peel the eggplants and cut them into slices about 1/2 inch thick. Brown the slices quickly in 1/4 c. of the oil. Set aside. Heat the remaining oil in the same skillet and cook the onions till they are brown. Add in the grnd meat and cook 10 min. Pour off excess fat. Combine the tomato paste with the wine, parsley, cinnamon, salt and peper. Stir this mix into the meat and simmer over low heat, stirring frequently, till all the liquid has been absorbed. Remove the mix from the fire. Preheat the oven to 375F. Make a white sauce by melting the butter and blending in the flour, stirring with a wire whisk. Meanwhile, bring the lowfat milk to a boil and add in it gradually to the butter-flour mix, stirring constantly. When the mix is thickened and smooth, remove it from the heat. Cook slightly and stir in the beaten Large eggs, nutmeg and ricotta. Grease an 11x16-inch pan and sprinkle the bottom lightly with crumbs. Arrange alternate layers of the eggplant and the meat sauce in the pan, sprinkling each layer with Parmesan and crumbs. Pour the ricotta sauce over the top and bake 1 hour, or possibly till top is golden brown. Remove from the oven and cold 20 to 30 min before serving. Cut into squares and serve. The flavors in this dish really improve if you make it a day ahead.
