- while eggplants are in ove you can proceed to preparation of the sauce: in a large non stick pot, pour olive oil and sautee the oignon till it is translucide, then add the mushrrom and the ham and sautee together for 1 min, then add the tomatoes,salt and pepper and mix together , once you bring it to a boil, let it simmer on a low heat until it's reduced to good consistency, turn off the heat and add the olives and oregano.
- your sauce is ready now, all you have left to do is lay it on the eggplants and top with some cheese then retun it to oven from the upside side for 2-3 min untill cheese is melted and a little crisp.
- Enjoy
- P.S the sauce can be prepared one to two days in advance and refrigerated
