Eggplant pie: ingredients.
To cook a pie to be divided into 4 portions you need the following ingredients :
- Oil as needed
- 5 or 6 slices gr of Scamorza
- 2 cloves of garlic
- 100 g of Parmesan
- 1 egg
- A few basil leaves
- Salt just enough
- 4 potatoes
- Pepper just enough
- 2 eggplants
- 1 chili pepper (optional)
Procedure.
First we cut the aubergines into cubes of about 1 centimeter.
Then in a saucepan we pour the oil, the slightly crushed garlic and the minced chilli pepper. When the ingredients in the pan begin to fry, add the aubergines.
Add the salt and pepper and then cover with the lid and let it cook for about 10 minutes, mixing the ingredients from time to time.
When the aubergines are ready, remove the pot from the stove.
At this point, take the previously cooked potatoes, remove the peel with your hands and mash them with a fork and then add them to the aubergine pot. We bring in a few coarsely broken basil leaves and the grated cheese. We continue the preparation by bringing in an egg and then mix well with a spoon.
Once everything appears homogeneous, place a saucepan with high edges on a stove and pour a little oil into it. When the oil is a little hot, transfer half of our pie to the pan. After having spread the pie well on the bottom, let it cook on a low flame for 5 minutes.
Now add the scamorza slices and then cover everything with the unused half of our pie.
Then put a lid on top and cook for just over 10 minutes on each side.
Instead, if we want to cook in the oven, just create the pie in a pan and cook for a quarter of an hour at 200 degrees.
When the eggplant pie is ready let it cool to room temperature.
It will be even better.
