There are a few kinds of vegetables that are very polarizing: half the people love them, the other half can’t stand them. Without a doubt, one such vegetable is eggplant. But the shiny dark violet fruit offers not just unimaginable pleasures, but it’s also the key ingredient for the smallest pizza in the world.

Instructions

Cut the eggplant into thick slices and lay them on a baking sheet. Sprinkle 1 tsp of salt over the slices and wait about 30 minutes. Dab away any remaining salt with a paper towel.
Coat the slices with 1 tsp of vegetable oil. Then season the slices with 1 tsp of oregano.
Bake the eggplant slices at 350°F for 25 minutes in the oven.
In the meantime, heat up 1 tsp of vegetable oil in a pan and add the chopped garlic cloves, diced tomatoes, 1 tsp of salt, and oregano.
After baking, add a generous dollop of the tomato sauce to each slice of eggplant. Add the mozzarella balls on top of the slices and bake them for another 5 minutes at 350°F.
Finally, garnish the slices with finely chopped basil leaves. Bon appétit!
