Ingredients

  • 2 finger eggplants, thinly sliced
  • 1 zucchini, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 large rectangular pizza base,
  • cut into 4
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • (or pizza sauce)
  • 1/3 cup semi-dried tomatoes, halved
  • 1 cup grated mozzarella cheese
  • basil leaves, to serve

Preparation method

  1. Preheat oven to hot, 200°C. Lightly grease a large oven tray (or line with baking paper).

  2. Preheat a char-grill on high. In a bowl, toss eggplant and zucchini with oil.

  3. Char-grill vegetables 2-3 minutes each side, until tender. Transfer to a plate.

  • Use the vegetables you have on hand.
