Baked Eggplant Rolls with Ham

Ingredients

200 g D'Orsogna Natural Premium Ham slices
2 Eggplants, cut into thin slices lengthways
2 tbsp Olive oil
500 g Spinach
250 g Ricotta tub
¾ tsp Nutmeg
350 g Tomato sauce jar
4 tbsp Breadcrumbs
4 tbsp Parmesan

Method

1

Preheat your oven to 200 degrees Celsius. Drizzle oil on both sides of the eggplant slices, then arrange them on a large baking tray. Bake for 15-20 minutes, flipping them halfway through until they are tender.

2

While the eggplant is baking, place the spinach in a colander and pour boiling water over it to wilt the leaves. Allow the spinach to cool, then squeeze out any excess moisture until it feels dry. In a mixing bowl, combine the drained spinach with ricotta cheese, a pinch of nutmeg, and a generous amount of seasoning to taste.

3

Next, take a slice of eggplant and layer a piece of D'Orsogna Natural Ham on top. Spoon a generous portion of the cheesy spinach mixture into the center of the eggplant slice. Fold the eggplant over the filling to form a parcel, ensuring the seam is facing down. Place the parcels in an ovenproof dish, then pour tomato sauce over them. Finish by sprinkling breadcrumbs and cheese on top.

4

Bake the dish in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the parcels are heated through. Serve hot and enjoy!
