Recipe Instructions

NOTE: You could add browned hamburger or Italian sausage to filling; I sometimes do.

Mix filling ingredients together until smooth. Add hamburger or sausage, if using. Chill. Peel eggplant and cut lengthwise into slices 1/8" - 1/4" wide. Mix batter ingredients until smooth. Dip eggplant slices into some additional flour, shaking off excess.

Heat oil and butter together. Dip eggplant into batter to coat. Saute in oil until browned on both sides. Drain on paper towels. Place about 2 tablespoons filling on each eggplant slice.

Roll loosely - short side. Arrange rolls with seam side down in lightly oiled baking pan. Cover with tomato sauce or spaghetti sauce. Sprinkle with grated Mozzarella.

Bake about 15 minutes at 375F.
