Name: Grilled Eggplant with Feta, Basil, and Pine Nuts
Yield: makes about 20
Cuisine: Greek
Ingredients: 2 Japanese eggplants; Extra-virgin olive oil, for brushing; Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper; ¼ cup + 2 Tbsp crumbled feta cheese; ¼ cup pine nuts, lightly toasted (see page 242); Fresh basil leaves, for garnish

This one-bite version of Italian rollatine involves little time or effort, and just a few ingredients. Grilled eggplant slices become tender wrappers for crumbled feta and toasted pine nuts; a single basil leaf garnishes each roll. They pair perfectly with the Roasted Polenta Squares with Fontina and Wild Mushrooms and a medium-bodied Italian wine such as Chianti or Nero d’Avola.
