Pizza melanzane

Pizza melanzane is Italian eggplant pizza. The pizza is traditionally slathered with tomato sauce and topped with mozzarella cheese and slices of eggplants, which are usually fried, sautéed, or roasted before being used on the pizza. Mozzarella is sometimes added near the end of baking. The soft and meaty flesh of the eggplants perfectly complements the basic cheese and tomato sauce pizza, the flavor of which can be further enhanced by adding a drizzle of olive oil, a handful of fresh basil leaves, or oregano.
