I've had an inappropriate relationship with eggplant for a few years now. My wife is aware of it and I've sought out some professional help. Eggplant is easy, delicious and dog-friendly. This is an easy recipe below you can make at home or in your neighbors kitchen when they're sleeping at night. They will be surprised and delighted that you broke into their house to bake this eggplant recipe.
Baked Eggplant and Basil Ricotta Rolls
Yield: Serves 4 - 5
2 medium eggplants
2 cups fresh ricotta
1/2 cups chopped fresh basil
1 cup finely grated Parmesan
1 cup Primavera pasta sauce
3/4 cup coarsely grated mozzarella
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray 2 large baking trays with olive oil. Cut the eggplants into 1cm thick slices lengthways. Arrange the eggplant, in a single layer, on the prepared trays. Lightly spray with olive oil spray. Bake in oven for 10 minutes or until golden. Meanwhile, place the ricotta, basil and three quarters of the Parmesan in a medium bowl and stir until well combined. Taste and season with pepper.
Place 1 tablespoon of the ricotta mixture on 1 eggplant slice and roll up firmly to enclose filling. Place the roll, seam side down, in a 30 x 20cm baking dish. Repeat with the remaining ricotta mixture and eggplant. Pour the tomato sauce evenly over the rolls. Sprinkle with fresh mozzarella and remaining Parmesan. Bake in oven for 10 minutes or until the mozzarella melts evenly
