Sprinkle the eggplant slices lightly with salt on both sides and let them drain in a colander for 30 minutes.
In a food processor chop fine the feta, add the ricotta, egg, 1/2 cup parmesan and lemon juice blend until smooth.
Add 1/4 cup parsley and scallions and process the mixture for 10 seconds.
Transfer the eggplant slices to paper towels and pat them dry.
Arrange 1/3 of the eggplant slices in one layer on a jelly roll pan brushed with oil and brush the tops with oil.
Cook the eggplant slices under a preheated broiler about 4 inches from the heat turning them once and brushing them again with the oil for 8-10 minutes or until lightly browned on both sides.
Transfer them to paper towels to drain and cook the remaining slices in the same manner.
Put 2 Tbsp. of the cheese mixture at the short end of each slice and roll up slices to enclose filling.
Spread 1/4 cup of the sauce in a 10 x 7 baking pan and arrange the eggplant rolls in one layer on the sauce.
Pour the remaining sauce over the rolls and sprinkle it with the remaining 1/4 cup of parmesan.
