Filling and Sauce
Method
Preparation and Cooking
Prepare the Eggplant
Slice the eggplants lengthwise into 1/4-inch thick slices. Sprinkle with salt and let them sit for about 30 minutes to draw out moisture. Rinse and pat dry.
Mix the Filling
In a bowl, combine ricotta cheese, mozzarella cheese, parmesan cheese, cooked spinach, and chopped basil. Mix well and adjust seasoning as needed.
Grill the Eggplant
Preheat a grill or grill pan. Grill the eggplant slices for about 3-4 minutes on each side until tender and slightly charred.
Assemble the Rollantine
On each eggplant slice, place a spoonful of the cheese filling and roll it up tightly. Secure with a toothpick if needed.
Bake
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Spread 1 cup of marinara sauce on the bottom of a baking dish. Place the eggplant rolls seam-side down on top of the sauce. Cover with remaining marinara sauce and sprinkle with additional cheese if desired.
Serve
Allow to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your Eggplant Rollantine!
