Description
Eggplant replaces pasta in this light but delicious cheesy baked dish.
Method
Step 1 of 4
Pre-heat the oven to 170°C/150°C fan-forced. Heat a griddle pan on high heat. Brush the eggplant slices with the oil and cook for 2 minutes on each side until tender, working in batches. Set aside to cool slightly.
Step 2 of 4
Mix the ricotta, mozzarella, half of the parmesan and egg yolk in a large bowl. Stir in the thawed spinach and mix well.
Step 3 of 4
Lay the eggplant strips out on a work surface, spread a little passata on each and top with a spoonful of cheese filling on the bottom of each slice. Gently roll up into a tube shape and place into a baking dish, packed together in rows.
Step 4 of 4
Sprinkle with the rest of the parmesan and bake for 15 minutes.
