Grilled Eggplant Rolls (Involtini di Melanzane)

This is a quintessential Mediterranean dish that showcases some of the best summer ingredients—fresh ricotta, eggplants, tomatoes, balsamic, fresh basil, dried oregano—all brought together by a generous drizzle of your best extra virgin olive oil. 

This can be an appetizer for 4 people or a main course for 2, if served with some crusty bread to mop the tomato juices from the plate.
