Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 medium eggplant, sliced into 1-inch-thick rounds
Coarse salt and ground pepper
5 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 pint cherry tomatoes
1/4 cup capers
6 ciabatta rolls, split and toasted
Grated Parmesan or ricotta, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Sprinkle eggplant with 2 teaspoons salt, and place in a colander set over a bowl. Let stand 30 minutes. Rinse and pat dry.
