Ingredients

Cherry Tomato Sauce:

Method

Peel off strips of eggplant skin lengthwise to create stripes; cut eggplant crosswise into 3/4-inch (2 cm) thick rounds. Sprinkle all over with salt ; let stand for 30 minutes. Place rounds between tea towels; press out liquid.

Cherry Tomato Sauce:
In bowl, mix together tomatoes, anchovies, garlic, oil, vinegar, basil, salt and pepper; scrape onto heavy-duty foil and wrap into packet. Place on grill over medium-high heat; cook until saucy, 10 to 15 minutes

Meanwhile, brush both sides of eggplant slices with oil. Add to grill; close lid and grill until bottoms are golden brown, about 5 minutes.

Turn and cover with cheese; grill until eggplant is tender, bottoms are golden and cheese is melted, 4 to 5 minutes. Serve topped with tomato sauce.
