A: Eggplant Rollatini

3 medium-sized eggplants (about 4 pounds total)
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
Can vegetable spray
32 ounces ricotta cheese
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella
8 tablespoons grated Parmesan
3 tablespoons toasted pine nuts
20 basil leaves, chiffonaded
Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling
2 cups fresh tomato sauce, recipe follows

Preheat the grill pan and preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
Place a rack over a large baking sheet. Cut the 2 ends off the eggplant. Cut the eggplants lengthwise, into 1/2-inch thick slices. Arrange eggplant slices onto rack. Sprinkle with sea salt to help remove excess moisture and any bitterness from the eggplants. Set aside for about 10 to 15 minutes. Rinse off the salt from the eggplants and pat dry with a towel. Spray hot grill pan liberally with vegetable spray and then place eggplant slices on the grill until lightly browned on each side and tender, about 4 minutes per side. Remove slices from the grill pan and allow to cool.

In a large bowl, beat eggs until lightly scrambled. Mix the ricotta in with the egg. Add mozzarella, 3 tablespoons of Parmesan cheese and toasted pine nuts and gently combine. Fold in basil just to combine. Do not overmix.

Place a tablespoon of the cheese mixture on 1 end of the eggplant and roll up tightly. Place the eggplant rollatini into a greased (with olive oil) 13 by 9-inch baking dish, seam side down. Continue with remaining eggplant. Evenly distribute the tomato sauce on top of the eggplant rollatini. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with remaining 5 tablespoons of Parmesan cheese and bake for 15 minutes. When cooked, drizzle the top with extra-virgin olive oil.

Simple Tomato Sauce
Recipe courtesy Giada De Laurentiis
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 small onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 stalk celery, chopped
1 carrot, chopped
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 (32-ounce) cans crushed tomatoes
2 dried bay leaves
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, optional

In a large casserole pot, heat oil over medium high heat. Add onion and garlic and saute until soft and translucent, about 5 to 10 minutes. Add celery and carrots and season with salt and pepper. Saute until all the vegetables are soft, about 5 to 10 minutes. Add tomatoes and bay leaves and simmer uncovered on low heat for 1 hour or until thick. Remove bay leaves and check for seasoning. If sauce still tastes acidic, add unsalted butter, 1 tablespoon at a time to round out the flavors.
Add 1/2 the tomato sauce into the bowl of a food processor. Process until smooth. Continue with remaining tomato sauce.

If not using all the sauce, allow it to cool completely and pour 1 to 2 cup portions into freezer plastic bags. This will freeze up to 6 months.

Q: Can thai basil be used in italian recipes?
Can thai basil be used in italian recipes?

More generally, can thai basil be used when recipes call for basil?
What type of basil are recipes asking for when the ingredients call for “basil”?

A: Thai basil compared to regular, generic basil sold at regular grocery stores has a very different taste! Sweet basil (like found in your regular grocery store) is usually used in traditional Italian recipes like Spaghetti, or pesto. Thai basil is used in Eastern style cooking alot more, so unless you’re cooking Thai or Vietnamese food, don’t use the Thai basil!

Hope this helps.

Here’s an easy, tasty meat/ricotta/parm LASAGNA recipe:

Buy a package of NO BOIL Lasagna noodles
2 15 oz containers of Ricotta cheese (or 1 large container)
2 cups shredded Mozzarella cheese, divided
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, divided
2 eggs, slightly beaten
1 tsp. dried basil
1 26 oz jar spaghetti sauce (actually, get TWO..you’ll need extra for serving leftovers)
1 cup water
1 lb. lean ground beef, cooked and drained

Preparation:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

In medium bowl, combine Ricotta, 1 cup Mozzarella cheese, 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, eggs, and basil: mix well.

In another medium bowl, combine spaghetti sauce (1 jar), 1 cup water and the browned ground beef; mix well.

In a 9″x13″ pan, spread 1 1/2 cups of meat sauce. Place 4 sheets of Lasagna noodles (they’ll be stiff cuz they’re no-boil). Spread 1/2 of the cheese mixture over the noodles, top with 1/3 of meat sauce.

Repeat layering once.

Then top with 4 sheets of Lasagna noodles, then sauce, sprinkle with remaining Mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.

Wrap the Lasagna tightly with a DOUBLE layer of foil.
Bake for 55-60 min or until Lasagna is fork tender.
Let stand 10 minutes sealed in foil before cutting and serving (Serves 4-6).

***Use the extra jar of sauce for when you reheat the other pieces as the sauce will be absorbed, so this way you have some on there .

Also: when layering the noodles in the pan, start at one edge…then the space that’s left on the other edge, just put down a noodle the other way (will have to break off a bit to fit in there).
This lasagna will come out tasting delicious! There are many variations…some using vegetables..but I like this one because it’s easy, tried and true.
