- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
- Salt and pepper to taste

Cooking Tips:
- To make the eggplant slices more tender, sprinkle them with salt and let them sit for 30 minutes before cooking.
- Use a non-stick skillet to prevent the frittata from sticking to the pan.

6. Pour the egg mixture over the eggplant slices in the skillet.
7. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the top of the frittata.
