Directions
Preheat oven to 350℉ (180℃).
In a large saucepan over low heat, cook green onion and mushrooms in ¼ cup water, until tender.
Add spaghetti sauce; bring to a boil.
Reduce heat; simmer 20 to 25 min.
Sprinkle salt over sliced eggplant; set aside to drain about 10 min.
In a shallow bowl, beat egg white and water together.
Dip eggplant in egg mixture, then into flour.
In a large non stick skillet, heat a few drops of oil over medium heat.
Add eggplant slices and cook until browned, turning once; drain on paper towel.
Continue until all slices are cooked.
In a 13" x 9" casserole, spread about ½ cup sauce.
Add a layer of eggplant, top with ½ cup cottage cheese and more sauce.
Repeat until all ingredients are used, ending with sauce.
Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese.
Bake uncovered 30 min. Let stand 5 min.
