Ingredients

• 1 egg, beaten
• 1 cup ricotta cheese
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1 cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs
• 1 pound angel hair pasta
• 1 (14 ounce) jar spaghetti sauce

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Bake for 15 minutes in the preheated oven, until the cheese is melted and lightly browned.

Step 2

Gather the ingredients.

Step 3

Spread a thin layer of ricotta cheese onto each slice of eggplant. Place a slice of prosciutto onto each one. Roll up tightly, and place seam-side down in a 9x13-inch baking dish. Pour tomato pasta sauce over eggplant rolls, and top with shredded mozzarella cheese.

Step 4

Dip eggplant slices in egg, then coat with bread crumbs. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 5

Fry eggplant slices on each side until golden brown. Remove to a paper towel lined plate to drain. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 6

If you want to serve the eggplant rollatini on pasta, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil while eggplant rolls are baking. Add pasta, and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until tender. Drain.

Step 7

Serve eggplant rolls and sauce over pasta.
