Gently baked on the inside and fried until golden on the outside, full of the aroma of cumin, ginger and coriander and soaked up with spicy tomato salsa - this eggplant is almost addictive. The counterpoint to it is creamy cashew cheese. You can buy ready-made cheese in vegan shops or master the method of its preparation yourself. Vlad Suchkov gives a quick and minimally expensive option: you just need to leave the nuts to soak in the refrigerator overnight , and grind them together with special vegan yeast in the morning.
