Instructions
- Peel the eggplants. Slice each eggplant lengthwise into 2-3 mm thick slices. Place them into a bowl full of salty water for 15 minutes. This method will help you get rid of the bitterness of the eggplants.
- Drain the water, tap the slices dry with the help of kitchen paper. Place the eggplant slices onto an oven tray which you covered with baking paper beforehand.
- Spread some vegetable oil on top of the slices using an egg brush. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees (fan mode off).
- When ready, bake the eggplant slices in the oven for approximately 7-10 minutes depending on your oven's speed. Remove them when they start to change colour. (Make sure to check on them frequently, so that they won't get burned.)
- Place the oven tray on the counter to cool down. While waiting, wash and chop the green onions (or chives). You can leave them a bit longer so that they will stick out of the rolls.
- When the eggplant slices cool down, pick one slice and place 2 teaspoons of cream cheese on one end. Top it with 4-5 pieces of chopped onion and start rolling it slowly.
- When you roll the slice into a tube, you can either place it onto a serving plate as it is, or you can stick a toothpick through it to keep it from unrolling.
- Repeat the process for each slice. Sprinkle some salt and black pepper on top of the rolls. They are ready to serve.
- Bon appetit!
Notes
You can also cook the eggplant slices on a pan for a couple of minutes, instead of baking them in the oven.
