“From the field to the grill, and from the grill to the table.”
Grilled aubergines from Puglia, rolled around dried tomatoes, onion and fennel, with extra virgin olive oil.
Farmers in Puglia know it well: a good traditional product needs excellent raw ingredients and as little processing as possible. These grilled aubergine rolls (eggplant rolls, if you prefer) start from local aubergines, ripened in the southern Italian sun, which makes them fleshy, sweet and full of flavour.
Grilling brings out the delicate, aromatic taste of the aubergine; the filling of dried tomatoes, onion and local wild fennel, with extra virgin olive oil, adds a Mediterranean touch. Making rolls like these at home takes time: in the 300 g jar they are ready to go, to keep in the pantry for everyday dinners and for when guests arrive.

If you want to make them at home
Ours are filled with dried tomatoes, onion and fennel. There is also a richer version with ham and cheese to make at home: you need 2 aubergines, 100 g of cooked ham, 50 g of scamorza, 50 g of ricotta, basil, extra virgin olive oil, salt and pepper.
1 |
Slice Wash the aubergines and cut them lengthwise into slices. |
2 |
Grill Cook them on a very hot griddle for 2-3 minutes per side, or grill them in the oven. Season with salt and pepper. |
3 |
The filling In a bowl, mix the ricotta with basil, salt and pepper, and spread it over the slices. |
4 |

Tips
| · For a tastier filling, add a pinch of nutmeg or some herbs, such as parsley or oregano, to the ricotta. |
| · No scamorza? Use another melting cheese, such as mozzarella or fontina. |
| · Aubergine rolls can be served hot or cold. |
| · As a starter, they go well with both meat and fish dishes. |
