Stuffed aubergines are a typical dish of Italian gastronomy, a variant of Greek moussaka . If you want to surprise your guests with a typical Italian lunch or dinner, and having baked aubergines as the main dish, we give you some ideas.

• Put lambrusco wine. It is typical of Italy, very easy to find in almost all supermarkets and, also, very cheap.
• Prepare some antipasto : they are the typical Italian hors d’oeuvres. A simple recipe is based on cans of canned fish. Prepare them in pretty little plates. Also prepare some hard-boiled eggs with a drizzle of olive oil and bell peppers. Serve everything on a large platter.
• If you are going to receive hungry guests, the final culmination is going to be a good tiramisu and a homemade cappuccino.

Making a cappuccino is easy. You just have to mix the milk with a teaspoon of vanilla on the fire and beat with a whisk until you get a foam. Serve the coffee, add the milk and top the foam with a spoon. Put a tube of cinnamon and that’s it. You can also sprinkle cinnamon and powdered sugar on top. You will succeed!
