Method
- Slice the eggplant lengthwise into 5mm thick slices and grill them on a hot griddle pan until tender.
- Peel the lupin beans if they have skin, and rinse them thoroughly to remove excess salt.
- Place the lupini beans, sun-dried tomatoes, lemon juice, and half of the olive oil in a blender.
- Pulse until you obtain a coarse, spreadable paste, adding a teaspoon of water if needed.
- Stir in the finely chopped fresh basil leaves by hand.
- Place a spoonful of the lupini mixture at one end of each eggplant slice and roll it up tightly.
- Arrange the rolls on a serving plate and drizzle with the remaining olive oil.
- Let the rolls rest for 10 minutes at room temperature before serving to allow the flavors to blend.
Tips
- Lupini beans are a fantastic low-fat protein source that provides a texture similar to ricotta when blended.
- You can add a pinch of chili flakes to the filling for a spicy Mediterranean kick.
