Aubergine rolls with ham and cheese is a delicious and very tasty second course that can be prepared in a short time and will make happy even those who do not particularly love vegetables. My daughter, as you will have understood by now, is not a great lover of vegetables in general but above all, she does not like aubergines and courgettes which for me is very dramatic since I love them both. Knowing their love for meat rolls, I decided to try to prepare a similar recipe with aubergines and incredibly, I managed to make them eat them with gusto. This was truly a revelation recipe because now I know that I can also try making aubergine rolls whenever I want and be sure they eat them too. Would you like to try to prepare them with me? Let's get started right away!
For 4 People
Ingredients
- 2 aubergines (I prefer Streaked Purple)
- 100g cooked ham
- 100g provolone or similar
- 70g Parmigiano Reggiano DOP
Preparation
Wash and dry the aubergines.
Slice the aubergines lengthwise and grill them on both sides on a hot plate or in a non-stick pan.
Let them cool slightly then place a slice of ham on top of each slice of grilled aubergine and then a slice of thinly cut provolone cheese.
Roll the aubergine slice on itself and close with two toothpicks.
Put the rolls on a tray with parchment paper, sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese and bake the eggplant rolls in a preheated oven at 200 ° with grill for 5/10 minutes at the most so that the cheese begins to melt.
Remove the eggplant rolls from the oven and serve hot.
Buon Appetito!
