Eggplant Gratin

I rated this very good although my version was really only good to fair. With really good ricotta and marinara this is probably a very successful recipe. I was using up the last of some supermarket ricotta, toscana rather than parmesan cheese, and an 8 oz. can of tomato sauce instead of marinara, so my results with this recipe are about what I would have expected.

On the other hand ... I think that the recipe would be tastier and healthier (with an easier clean-up) with roasted or grilled eggplant, rather than fried.
