Eggplant-stuffed strudel is an easy and tasty recipe, perfect for deliciously using 2 EGGPLANTS that were getting a bit too soft!
If you want to save time, use frozen GRILLED EGGPLANTS, but I baked them at high heat for a few minutes to make them soft and tender.

Steps
1) First, I washed and sliced the EGGPLANTS and then cooked them for 5 minutes on each side on a tray lined with parchment paper at 428°F in a static mode oven.
2) I unroll the ready-made puff pastry, keeping the parchment paper from the package, and place it on a surface.
3) I add slices of eggplant (I placed 9) in the center, overlapping them.
4) Now I place slices of COOKED HAM on top, then chopped MOZZARELLA and some torn basil leaves.
5) I cut the two sides of the puff pastry into strips, leaving the top piece intact.
6) Then I proceed to close the filling by braiding the puff pastry strips.

Don’t like eggplants? Well, let’s use GRILLED ZUCCHINI, add slices of potatoes cut thin with a mandoline (careful with your fingers, please) just blanched for 3/4 minutes in boiling salted water.
