It’s called “A Little” because it does basically taste like eggplant parmesan (cheesy, salty, saucy) but lighter, fresher, tangier, crunchier. It’s also, literally, a small eggplant parm (serves 2).

No, the eggplant does not need to be salted, no we will not be breading OR frying the eggplant.

Unless you are doubling this recipe (which you can easily do), you are only using half the tomato sauce here. Save the rest by freezing it, or popping it into the fridge to eat over pasta later in the week.

Sure, if you don’t care for capers or anchovies, you can skip them. Just know you are, in fact, missing out.

Yes, despite being from the San Fernando Valley (818!), I loathe abbreviating words because I am an adult woman, aged 35 years. That said, “Eggplant Parmesean” feels formal, like I’m using its full name because it’s in trouble, so “Eggplant Parm” it is. This is my one exception to the rule.
