Recipe ingredients

1 medium eggplant

1 tsp. (5 mL) salt
½ cup (125 mL) Knorr Louisiana Red Pepper Marinade
3 Tbsp. (45 mL) Irresistibles olive oil*
Stuffing
3½ oz. (100 g) feta cheese
10 pitted black olives*, chopped
3 Tbsp. (45 mL) Hellmann’s Roasted Garlic Mayonnaise
¼ cup (60 mL) chopped fresh basil

Preparation

Slice eggplant lengthways about ½ in. (1 cm) thick. Slices will be wider at one end because of eggplant’s shape.
Sprinkle with salt and let sit for 1 hour to allow moisture to leach out.
Rinse with cool water and pat dry with paper towel.
Place eggplant slices in a large bowl and coat with Knorr Louisiana Red Pepper marinade. Let sit for 30 minutes. Drain, reserving marinade.
Preheat barbecue to medium-high.
Brush eggplant with olive oil and grill 3 to 5 minutes per side. After turning slices, brush them with marinade.
In a bowl, mix feta cheese, black olives and mayonnaise together.
Spoon mixture onto narrow bottom end of slices.
Sprinkle with basil, and roll up each slice.
Microwave on high for 2 minutes or pop into a preheated 350ºF (180ºC) oven for 8 to 10 minutes. Serve.
