Eggplant Rolls's Image
Eggplant rolls are a delicious vegetarian dish that originated in Mediterranean cuisine. The dish consists of thinly sliced eggplant that is rolled around a filling of cheese, herbs, and vegetables. The rolls are then baked until the eggplant is tender and the filling is melted and golden brown. Eggplant rolls are often served as an appetizer or as a main course with a side salad. They are a great option for vegetarians and can be easily adapted to a vegan diet by using dairy-free cheese.
