Place them in a wok with 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil, season with salt, and cover with a lid. Cook for about 15/20 minutes, then place them on a tray lined with paper towel.
In a pot, sauté the whole garlic clove with a tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil.
Add the tomato sauce, adjust the salt and oregano, and cook for about 10-15 minutes until you obtain a thick sauce. Remove the garlic.
Preheat the oven to 355°F.
Unroll the first sheet of puff pastry and place it in a baking pan.
Fold the edges inward and prick the base with a fork.
Distribute the eggplants, add the sauce, and sprinkle with shredded mozzarella for pizza.
Unroll the second sheet of puff pastry and use a pastry wheel or knife to cut strips about 1/2 inch wide.
Place the strips on the pie, crossing them as shown in the photo.
Brush the surface with the beaten egg yolk and bake for about 25/30 minutes until golden.
