Try this eggplant involtini recipe and enjoy the delicious, cheesy ricotta stuffing and flavorful tomato sauce. 

I made this ricotta stuffed eggplant rolls recipe a few days ago and I absolutely fell in love with it! I must be honest and say this was not entirely my idea. I saw this recipe on Pinterest and decided to give it a try. First, I thought it was going to be a bit complicated to make but I was wrong! It is super-easy and anyone can make it. Also, it will be a huge success at the dinner table – in my case, everyone loved it!

This ricotta stuffed eggplant rolls recipe is one of those recipes that will convince even a non-veg that vegetarian recipes are delicious and very filling. Give it a try and let me know if you enjoyed it as much as I did 😀

Ingredients
  

  • 2 eggplants
  • 2 cups ricotta cheese

  • Spray a frying pan with some oil. Add the eggplant slices and cook them on both sides – about 1 minute per side or until they get soft and easy to work with.
  • When all eggplant slices are cooked, set them aside in order to let them cool a little bit.
  • Meanwhile, add ricotta cheese, feta cheese, chopped dill and thyme in a bowl. Mash them using a fork. Add more salt if needed.
  • Start stuffing the rolls. Use 1tbsp of cheese mix per roll.
  • Add peeled tomatoes with sauce in a casserole dish.
  • Place the rolls on top and squeeze them together.
  • Bake in the oven for half an hour.
  • Serve these ricotta rolls hot with sour cream on top. Heavenly! 😀

    I am Italian and my better half is of Greek descent. We both adore Mediterranean cuisine. This sounds like a perfect combo of our mothers’ recipes for me to try. Thank you for sharing! Mara

    This looks really really tasty! What a fun way to use a eggplant. I usually just steam them, so this is much more exciting!
