Ingredients
- 2 large eggplants (aubergines)
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- 200 grams feta cheese
- 50 grams cream cheese
- 3 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 2 tablespoons fresh mint
- 1 clove garlic
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Slice the eggplants lengthwise into thin slices (about 1/4 inch thick). Discard the ends.
Step 3
Brush both sides of the eggplant slices with olive oil and sprinkle with a pinch of salt.
Step 4
Lay the eggplant slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the slices are tender and pliable but not falling apart. Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly.
Step 5
While the eggplant is baking, prepare the filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the crumbled feta cheese, cream cheese, finely chopped parsley, mint, grated garlic, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth and creamy.
Step 6
Take a cooked eggplant slice and place about 1 heaped teaspoon of the filling at one end of the slice. Gently roll up the slice, starting from the filled end, to create a small roll. Repeat with the remaining eggplant slices and filling.
Step 7
Arrange the eggplant rolls on a serving plate. If desired, drizzle with a little extra olive oil or garnish with additional parsley or mint before serving.
Step 8
Serve warm, at room temperature, or chilled. These rolls pair beautifully with fresh bread or a light salad.
