1

Scegli 2 melanzane mature tonde e di misura media, tagliale a metà per la loro lunghezza.

2

Crea con un coltello delle incisioni nella polpa interna delle melanzane profonde fino quasi alla buccia.

3

Sale anche nelle incisioni e olio extra vergine usando un pennello.

4

Cuocere nel forno a 180°c per 25 minuti.

5

Se utilizzi la friggiaria ricorda di girare le melanzane verso fine cottura in modo da cuocerle anche sotto.

6

Nel frattempo puoi preparare tutti gli ingredienti per riempire poi le melanzane.

7

Condire le melanzane come si condirebbe una pizza con salsa di pomodoro, olive, origano, fette di pomodoro, mozzarella, basilico, e, a piacere, capperi e acciuga.

8

Reinfornare di nuovo per una decina di minuti.
