Aubergine Milanese is a great alternative to veal or chicken if you are trying to eat less meat. Packed with flavour and a satisfying meaty texture.
\nYou should know though, that in Italy no one, and I mean no one, would never ever serve a Milanese (any type of Milanese really) with spaghetti!!! That is a concept Italians cannot bear. But fear not, I hear you. I understand you want something creamy to go with your crispy Milanese so here we are \u2026.warm Grana Padano espuma!
\nI assure you this dish is easier and quicker than it sounds and it pays off every time!
\nChefs tip: if a siphon is not available you can serve the crispy aubergines with a Grana Padano mousse instead. Use the same amount of ingredients, whip the cream and incorporate the finely grated Grana Padano. Season and place it into a piping bag. Serve cold.<\/span><\/h4>\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text disabled_on=”on|on|on” admin_label=”Step Description” _builder_version=”4.19.5″ _module_preset=”default” header_4_font=”Merriweather||||||||” header_4_font_size=”21px” header_4_line_height=”27px” custom_margin=”0px||3px||false|false” custom_padding=”0px||||false|false” disabled=”on” ab_subject=”on” ab_subject_id=”2″ global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n
In questa ricetta fondamentale \u00e8 l\u2019uso del Grana Padano in quanto indispensabile per la buona riuscita della stessa. Con il suo robusto sapore, contrasta l\u2019acido della salsa ottenuta. Viene considerata a \u201czerosprechi\u201d in quanto viene usata al massimo la parte edibile ma anche perch\u00e9 viene ridotto al minimo l\u2019uso di gas, o di forni usando la minor quantit\u00e0 possibile di energia elettrica.<\/span><\/h4>\n

Peel the aubergines with a potato peeler and slice into 2cm thick steaks. Season with salt, rub well and let them marinade in the salt for a few hours to remove excess water

Season a few tablespoons of flour with the paprika and curry powder. Pat aubergine steaks dry and dust them well with the seasoned flour. Then, dip them into the seasoned egg wash. Mix the panko breadcrumbs with the grated Grana Padano and toss the aubergine steaks in. Press the breadcrumbs onto the aubergine steaks to ensure no spots are left uncovered. Set aside

To prepare the Grana Padano espuma, warm up the cream and when just boiling remove from the heat and gently melt in the finely grated Grana Padano cheese. Season to taste and pass through a sieve to remove any lumps. Pour the cream into a 500 ml big kitchen syphon and seal. Let it cool and add 2 gas charges. Store in the fridge but remember to warm it up in a pot of hot water (not boiling) before serving. Let the syphon rest for a couple of hours before piping the espuma out as this allows the gas to have time to distribute well within the cream.

Then deep fry the aubergine steaks at 170 degrees. Cook a couple at a time. After 2\/3 minutes flip them over to make sure they are well golden all over. They should be cooked for about 5\/6 minutes in total. When ready, drain the aubergine steaks on to a piece of kitchen paper and sprinkle them with grated Grana Padano while still hot
\nPlate the aubergine steaks on flat dishes. Top with a spoonful of fragrant pesto and garnish with basil leaves and lemon zest. Sprinkle with sea salt flakes and finish with a big dollop of warm Grana Padano espuma on the side! Enjoy.
