“Fan of eggplant” with vegetables, meat and cheese, I tried it for the first time at my mother-in-law's visit. She is an expert in preparing unusual and beautiful dishes. At home, I repeated the recipe, replacing the chicken fillet with thin slices of pork. It turned out very tasty and satisfying. Now in the fall I definitely cook such a dish, often even without meat.
