Eggplant sushi rolls with tahini sauce

Estimated reading time: 4 minutes

The eggplant offers numerous possibilities for use in the kitchen. A favorite here at home is to grill them with some olive oil and various herbs. Or filled with all kinds of goodies from the oven. We will also do that filling in this recipe for eggplant sushi rolls with tahini sauce, but in a slightly different way. My husband's reaction to this dish was: “hummm, it looks a bit strange but it is very tasty”. He has to endure it all here at my home... something different almost every day and sometimes the most wonderful combinations. But he doesn't complain... eggplant sushi recipes

And this is how you make Eggplant sushi rolls with tahini sauce:

We start with the eggplant, cut them into long slices about a centimeter thick. They will flatten out a bit during grilling. I did not use the two outer slices, they were just a bit too thin.

Brush the slices with some olive oil and sprinkle them with some sea salt, pepper and za'atar herbs. Then grill them on a griddle or in a grill pan. about 3 minutes on both sides until they have nice grill marks. Set aside until use.

Cooking the sushi rice

The filling consists of sushi rice. I can be very brief about this: I followed the exact directions on the suit. I used half a pack. After it was done I added 2 tbsp rice wine and 2 tbsp rice wine to the rice so that it remained a little moist.

Chop the parsley and mint very finely, and finely chop the shallot as well. Add this to the rice and mix it all together.

Take the aubergine slices and scoop about a tablespoon of rice on top. Then carefully roll up and place on a plate. Repeat with the rest of the aubergine slices. So you may have leftover rice.

Finally, we make the tahini sauce. Place all ingredients in a bowl and mix until you get a smooth sauce. Spoon the sauce over the rolls and finally sprinkle some fried onions over it. Serve with a little soy sauce and: Delicious Happen!
