Aubergine rolls with red pesto and sun dried tomatoes

A good lunch or dinner in the company of friends should always start with a decent aperitif combined with a tasty starter made from the most delicate, delicious and fresh ingredients available, especially during the summer months. In this recipe we have prepared an appetizer of griddled aubergine, a pleasant and fresh vegetable, which is then filled with a tasty stuffing made from ham and flavoured with sun-dried tomatoes. With these special, tasty rolls you will win over your guests right from the off, especially if you can combine this delicate starter with a good quality wine, thereby creating an irresistible combination.

Cut the aubergine into fairly thin slices. Put them in a colander to drain, lightly salted. After half an hour, dab them with a paper towel, then cook them on a heavy griddle frying pan. When done, fill them with ham, sun-dried tomato red pesto and a sprinkling of oregano. Roll them up and secure with a toothpick. Serve.
