A light version of stuffed eggplants, where instead of minced meat there is solid vegetable protein in the form of boiled beans and tofu. Plus a few nice details: before putting the filling in, the eggplant boats are thickly greased from the inside with butter with a fair amount of aromatic cilantro, and then, already with the filling, they are seasoned with a thick tomato sauce, which turns purple and bubbles in the oven, creating the illusion of real meat from the vegetarian filling. The result is a typical dish-deception: tenderly baked on the inside and fried until golden brown on the outside, stuffed with illusory soy meat, such an eggplant binds to itself even those who usually respect real meat more.

The essence of the salad is that deep-fried tofu and thinly sliced carrots, cucumber and red onion feathers are combined with a spicy Asian-style dressing with ginger, fish sauce, sesame oil , chili and a whole bunch of mint and cilantro. This is exactly the case when tofu does not pretend to be anything, but looks exactly what it is: a pure protein product with a luxurious silky texture. The king of the salad is the retinue (that is, the sauce) - with its help, a pile of ordinary garden vegetables turns into an exotic dish that intrigues the receptors.
