Slice the eggplants and let them drain with salt for half an hour. Rinse.
Cut the zucchinis and tomatoes into semi-thick slices.
Whisk the eggs with the cream, 3/4 cup of parmesan cheese, balsamic vinegar, salt, and ground pepper.
Sauté the eggplant in a little oil and set aside. Sauté the onion until it becomes colored and set aside. Sauté the zucchinis, adding salt, pepper, and the previously cooked onion.
Layer slices of eggplant, tomato, and zucchini with onion, the egg and cream mixture, and so on. Finish with a layer of vegetables and a bit of oregano, or if you prefer more creaminess, you can top the dish with cheese and cream.
Bake covered with aluminum foil for 30 minutes at 180 degrees.
Uncover, place the remaining parmesan cheese on top, and turn on the broil to brown the cheese for a few minutes.
Serve hot.
