Prepare all the products. If tilapia fillet frozen - thawed.

Then dry the slices of eggplant with a paper towel. Fry them on the grill until it sticks (the surface of the grill I greased with vegetable oil). Remove from grill and set aside.

The stuffing is ready.
Form "Christmas trees". Spread on a plate a slice of eggplant, liberally smeared it with stuffing, then spread the following turn. Spread the top "cap" of the filling and decorate with greens. Appetizer "Eggplant tree" is ready! Bon appetit!
