Involtini di melanzane
Today we cook one of our favourite dishes: involtini di melanzane, eggplant rolls with Parmesan and ricotta cheese. Simply delicious!
Ingredients:
- Olive oil
- Pepper
- Salt
- Fresh ricotta
- Parmigiano
- Raisins
- Onions
- Pecorino
- Eggplants
Cooking time:
15 minutes
Directions:
Fry a little bit the red onions in a hot pan with small amout of olive oil. Cut the eggplant in thin slices, pass them in the flour, then fry in sunflower oil (which has a lighter taste than extra virgin olive oil).
To make the stuffing for the involtini di melanzane, we need fresh ricotta. Add the caramelized onions, a bit of pepper, salt, raisins, pecorino and parmigiano. Mix together the ingredients. Add just a little bit of salt and pepper to the eggplant. Now put the stuffing on the eggplant slice and then roll it. Put the eggplant rolls in a terracotta pan, add more pecorino to create a little crost.
Cook the eggplant in the hoven at 375 F for 15 minutes.
