Pour a portion of the tomato passata over the ham, then sprinkle a pinch of salt and oregano over the tomato layer. Finally, drizzle a small amount of extra virgin olive oil over the top.
Add slices of provolone cheese over the tomato layer. Repeat the layering process until all ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of provolone cheese on top. Sprinkle generously with Parmesan cheese.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven. Bake for about 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbly.
