Grilled eggplant rolls are a quick, tasty main course perfect for impressing everyone. Here is our version with couscous.
The recipe for grilled eggplant rolls with couscous is by our Francesca Lucisano, food blogger at Giallo Zafferano.
Ingredients for 8 rolls:
- 100 g of medium couscous
- 80 ml of lukewarm water
- 1 large black eggplant
- 80 g of tuna in oil
- 40 g of basil pesto
- salt to taste
Preparation:
Pour the couscous into a bowl and rehydrate it with the water. Let it rest for 10 minutes, then fluff it with a fork and add the pesto and drained tuna.
Mix well and set aside. Wash the eggplant and cut it into slices about half a centimeter thick, then grill it on a hot plate.
When ready, place the eggplant slices on a cutting board and lightly salt them.
Fill each slice with a teaspoon of couscous with pesto and tuna, then roll it up and secure with a toothpick. Continue this way until all ingredients are used. Serve at the table.
