Ingredients
  

  • 2 eggplants
  • 2 cups ricotta cheese
  • 50 g feta cheese
  • 4 Tbsps dill chopped
  • 1 can peeled tomatoes with sauce
  • 2 tsps thyme
  • 1-2 tbsps oil
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Trim the stem end of each eggplant. Slice them lengthwise using a mandoline or a sharp knife. The slices should be 1/4-inch thick. Sprinkle them with sea salt on both sides and set aside.
  • 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! :D
