Intro

These smoky grilled eggplant rolls are stuffed with a tangy herbed cheese filling and spiced with the deep warmth of 7 spice. They’re elegant enough for a dinner party and simple enough for a weekday lunch. The blend adds a bold layer of flavor without overpowering the creaminess of the filling.

2 medium eggplants, sliced lengthwise into ¼-inch strips
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp 7 spice
Salt, to taste

Filling:

¾ cup ricotta cheese
2 tbsp chopped parsley

Make the Filling
In a bowl, mix ricotta, parsley, lemon zest, salt, and pepper.
