Grilled Eggplant with Feta Cheese
This authentic Greek appetizer recipe is one of our family favorites. Our Parnon Estates Greek Olive Oil sets it apart from the rest.
Ingredients:
- 1 Medium Eggplant
- 1/2 Cup Parnon Estates Greek Olive Oil
- 1/4 pound feta cheese juice of one lemon
- 1 tbsp. Parnon oregano
- Salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
Prepare Eggplant
Slice eggplant long ways about 1/4 inch thick. Salt each slice and allow to drain in a colander for 30 minutes. Rinse with cold water and pat dry with paper towels.
In a skillet add small portion of olive oil, and grill eggplant at a low heat so to not burn them. Once cooked, turn off heat and allow to cool.
Prepare Dressing
Combine the Parnon olive oil, lemon juice, oregano, salt and pepper together to create the dressing.
Finish
Once cooled, roll each up with a small portion of feta cheese and secure with a toothpick. Drizzle with dressing and serve at room temperature.
