Step by step recipe
1. We take three approximately identical eggplants and cut them lengthwise into plates about 3-5 mm thick.
Transfer the sliced eggplant slices to a bowl and sprinkle well with salt. In this form, leave them for about 15 minutes, so that they let the juice flow.
2. After 15 minutes, wash the eggplants with cold water and dry them with paper towels or put them in a colander and let the water drain.
3. We spread the prepared plates on a hot frying pan with a small amount of sunflower oil. Fry over medium heat until golden brown on both sides.
4. Let's prepare the filling. 100 g of any semi-hard cheese three on a fine grater, I took cheddar. 100 g feta cheese three on a coarse grater.
5. Also on a coarse grater, three two boiled eggs.
Finely chop a small bunch of parsley.
6. Put the grated cheese, eggs, feta cheese and chopped parsley in a bowl. Here we squeeze 1-2 cloves of garlic. We salt and pepper everything a little, do not forget that the cheeses are already salty. Add 1-2 tbsp to the filling. l. mayonnaise and mix.
7. We will use a small tomato for decoration. Cut it into 4 pieces and remove the seeds. Cut the remaining pulp into strips.
8. We take a fried eggplant plate and put about a teaspoon of the prepared filling on it from one edge. Put a parsley leaf and a strip of tomato on top of the filling.
Roll the stuffed eggplant into a roll. Thus, we fold all the eggplant plates with the filling.
