Step by step cooking eggplant with zucchini in the oven under cheese, recipe with photo:
1. Wash the eggplants, cut into 5 mm slices and place in a baking dish. Season them with salt, black pepper and any spices. I used soy sauce. If the eggplants are not dairy, but ripe, then sprinkle them with salt in sliced form and leave for half an hour. Then rinse and dry with a paper towel. This will remove specific bitterness from the pieces. A young vegetable is usually not bitter.
2. Wash the courgettes, cut into rings of the same size (5 mm) and place on top of the eggplants. Season them with salt and ground pepper.
3. Wash the tomatoes, cut them into rings as thick as the previous vegetables and place them on the courgettes. I recommend taking tomatoes with a dense and elastic pulp, so that when baked they retain their shape.
4. Cut the cheese into thin slices and cover the tomatoes.
5. Heat the oven to 180 degrees and send vegetables to bake for half an hour. Cook for the first 20 minutes under covered foil, then remove and bake for another 10 minutes to brown the cheese crust. Serve warm eggplants with zucchini in the oven under the cheese. Although after cooling, the appetizer remains no less tasty.
