Ingredients

• 2 prepared pizza crust (or recipe for pizza dough)

• flour
• salt
• 1 cup mozzarella cheese
• 1/4 cup parmesan cheese
• 1/2 cup vegetable oil

Directions

1. 1

   Peel eggplant and cut into 1 inch round circles. Lay single file on baking sheet and lightly salt to coat eggplant. Place 2nd baking sheet on top of eggplants and weight down top with a couple cans of whatever you have in the cupboard. Let sit for about 2 hours, at this point liquid will have gathered at the bottom of the sheets (this is the bitter). Once the 2 hours have past rinse off the eggplant and pat dry.

   If you are making pizza dough you can start the eggplants at the same time, that way they will both be ready for the next stage together.

   Prepare 1-2 pizza shells, cover with your favorite tomato sauce.
