Bolognese with eggplant!

What do you think? I think this combination can be as strong as tomato and basil.

You better enjoy red wine with this dish!

You can use heavy cream instead of chefs for topping if you like. 
Make sure that you don't make deep-flied eggplant too oily because that make everything worse.

If you think about calories and fat intake, prepare eggplant in the oven with 400
The point is drain water out from inside of eggplant and absorb flavor from sauce when it mixed with sauce.

I hope you enjoy:)
