Tips:
- Choose the right eggplant: Look for eggplants that are firm and heavy for their size, with smooth, unblemished skin. Avoid eggplants that have brown spots or blemishes, as these may indicate bruising or decay.
- Slice the eggplant evenly: To ensure even cooking, slice the eggplant into uniform rounds or strips. This will help them cook evenly and prevent some pieces from becoming overcooked while others remain undercooked.
- Salting the eggplant: Salting the eggplant before cooking helps to draw out excess moisture and prevent it from becoming soggy. Be sure to rinse the eggplant thoroughly after salting to remove any excess salt.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the eggplant, be sure to not overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the eggplant from cooking evenly and may cause it to steam instead of brown.
- Use a variety of fillings: The fillings for eggplant rolls can be varied to suit your taste. Some popular options include goat cheese, tomato, spinach, artichoke, and feta cheese. Get creative and experiment with different combinations to find your favorite.
Conclusion:
Broiled eggplant rolls are a versatile and delicious dish that can be enjoyed as an appetizer, main course, or side dish. With their tender eggplant, savory fillings, and crispy breadcrumb topping, they are sure to be a hit at any gathering.
