serves 2
Air Fryers are my favorite way to cook eggplant. If you cook it correctly it turns out to be baked on the outside, and still tender and plump on the inside. Using your air fryer is a quick, easy, and delicious way to cook eggplant, and can be a great addition to any meal.

Mozzarella is a soft white cheese with high moisture content. It originates from Italy and is usually made from Italian buffalo or cow’s milk. Mozzarella is lower in sodium and calories than most other cheeses. Mozzarella is delicious in a Caprese salad – made with fresh tomatoes, basil, and balsamic vinegar – and can be added to many recipes.
● Black pepper:
Black pepper is widely used in cooking around the world. It is often called “King of Spices”. Black pepper and its active ingredient, piperine, can have strong antioxidant activity, increase the absorption of certain nutrients and beneficial compounds.
The amount of black pepper commonly used in cooking and additives up to 20 mg piperine appears to be safe. However, black pepper can increase drug absorption and should be used with caution when combined with some medications. Black pepper is a flexible ingredient that can be added to a variety of recipes, including meat, fish, eggs, salads, and soups. Available at most grocery stores.
