Preheat the oven to 240 degrees. Cut each of the two eggplants into 6 slices. Try to keep the slices the same thickness.
2 eggplants
Sprinkle both sides of the slices with salt and let it soak in for a moment. Then pat them dry with paper towels.
0.5 tablespoon salt (Celtic sea salt)
Remove the hot baking sheet from the oven. Line it with parchment paper and arrange the eggplant slices on it. Drizzle generously with olive oil. Roast for 20 minutes, or less if the edges start to brown sooner.
In the other mixing bowl, combine the feta with two eggs and a tablespoon of olive oil. To do this, first mash the feta, then blend. The mixture does not need to be completely smooth.
3 eggs, 150 g feta
When the eggplant is ready, remove the baking sheet. Place a rack in the oven. Then reduce the oven temperature to 220 degrees.
Very lightly grease the loaf pan with a few drops of olive oil. Place a layer of 3 eggplant slices in the bottom of the loaf pan.
Spread half the feta mixture over the top. Add a third of the basil on top. Cover with 3 eggplant slices.
1 generous handful basil
Add half the tomato mixture on top. Top with 3 tomato slices and half the pecorino. Cover with 3 eggplant slices.
Add the second half of the feta mixture on top, along with a third of the basil. Cover again with 3 eggplant slices.
Finish with the second half of the tomato mixture and the remaining pecorino. Arrange the last 3 tomato slices and the remaining basil on top. Reserve a few leaves for garnish.
Bake for half an hour.
