Ingredients
- 2 eggplants
- 125 g mozzarella 4 oz, fresh
- 200 g tomato passata ¾ cup
- 4 tablespoons olive oil extra virgin
- salt to taste
- basil leaves fresh, for decoration
Instructions
- Wash the eggplant and remove the green stem. Then cut the eggplant into slices about 1 ½ cm (~⅔ inch) thick.
- Place the slices on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Using a knife, make light slashes into the flesh of the eggplant. Be careful to cut only on the surface of the flesh without piercing the slice. PLEASE NOTE: This step will shorten the cooking time and make it easier for the eggplant's juices to escape. It also allows the oil and spices to penetrate the flesh more effectively.
- Season the eggplant slices with a little oil and a pinch of fine salt.
- Bake at 180°C (350°F) for 20 minutes. Remove the eggplant from the oven. The flesh of the slice should be soft but still intact.
- Season with the tomato, chopped mozzarella and some fresh basil. Add another drizzle of oil.
- Return to the oven at 200°C (390°F) for another 10 to 15 minutes or until the mozzarella is melted.
Notes
- PLEASE NOTE: These are servings for about 14 to 16 small eggplant pizzas. It depends on the size of the eggplant and how big you want to make the pizzas. We used two rather small, long, narrow eggplants. We cut them widthwise to make small pizzas. If you want larger "pizzettas", cut them lengthwise or use larger eggplants.
