Eggplant pancakes with mozzarella and tomatoes are an exquisite combination of Mediterranean flavors in an unusual format. This recipe embodies the elegance of Italian cuisine, blending the softness of eggplants, the tenderness of melted mozzarella, and the freshness of roasted aromatic tomatoes. Thin eggplant pancakes fried to a golden crust serve as a base for a rich bouquet of flavors. Baked with arugula and spices on the grill, they acquire a rich aroma. This dish is perfect as an original appetizer, a complement to the main course, or a light dinner. It harmoniously pairs with dry white wines and fresh herbs, filling the meal with an atmosphere of Italian coziness.
