How to Make Garlic Herb Eggplant Aubergine Rolls

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Trim both ends from one large eggplant (about 1 pound).
  3. Slice eggplant into 1/4-inch thick rounds.
  4. Soak eggplant slices in a bowl of salted water (1/4 cup salt per quart of water) for 10 minutes to draw out excess moisture.
  5. Drain eggplant slices thoroughly and pat dry with paper towels.
  6. Coat both sides of eggplant slices with 1/2 cup breadcrumbs.
  7. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook eggplant slices for 3 minutes per side, until lightly browned.
  8. Spread approximately 1 tablespoon of ricotta cheese evenly on each eggplant slice.
  9. Sprinkle each slice with 1 teaspoon of your favorite Italian herb blend (such as oregano, basil, thyme).
  10. Add a pinch of garlic powder and salt and pepper to taste.
  11. Roll up each eggplant slice and secure with a toothpick.
  12. Place eggplant rolls in a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
  13. Pour 1 1/2 cups of your favorite spaghetti sauce over the eggplant rolls.
  14. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until heated through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  15. Serve the eggplant rolls over hot cooked pasta (about 1 pound).
  16. Garnish with freshly grated Parmesan cheese (about 1/4 cup).
