Step 1

Preheat oven to 400F.

Slice and salt eggplant: First, remove the stems from the eggplant. Cut eggplant lengthwise into 1/4-inch thick slices. Salt on both sides and let sit to "sweat" for 10 minutes. Pat dry with paper towel and wipe off remaining salt. Note: this process removes excess moisture from the eggplant and prevents a watery rollatini.

Step 3

Bake eggplant: Lay eggplant on a lightly greased pan and bake for 10 minutes. Remove and let cool. Note: this softens the eggplant so you can easily roll it with the filling.

Step 4

Mix filling together: While eggplant is baking, add to a bowl: ricotta cheese, Italian Cheese, egg, garlic salt, Italian seasoning, Mix together.

Step 5

Prepare rollatini: Spread a thin layer of sauce on the bottom of your casserole or baking dish. After eggplant has cooled top with prosciutto, spoon 1-2 Tablespoons of ricotta filling on eggplant, then roll and lay in baking dish with sauce. Repeat until finished.

Step 6

Bake: Spoon 1 to 1 1/2 cups of marinara sauce over eggplant, top with fresh mozzarella. Cover with foil or lid and bake for 30 minutes, then uncover and bake for 10 minutes. Serve and enjoy!
