Roll de Beringela is an eggplant roll with soft cheese, walnuts and cilantro. We use the famous Portuguese requeijão in this recipe – a fresh, not salted, ricotta-like cheese with a delicate flavour.
Ingredients for 3-4 servings:
- 1 medium eggplant
- 3-4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 100 gr Portuguese requeijão cheese (you can replace requeijão with ricotta)
- 1/2 cup walnuts for the filling + 1 tablespoon walnuts for the garnish
- 1 garlic clove
- 1/4 cup cilantro (fresh coriander)
- Black pepper to taste
- Salt to taste
