Toast with Roasted Spicy Aubergine, Tomato and Cottage Cheese
Description
The base of the meal is a slice of thick, crusty bread—think sourdough, rye, or multigrain—toasted until golden and crispy on the outside while remaining soft inside. The toast provides a hearty, crunchy foundation that supports the creamy and juicy toppings while adding a subtle nuttiness, depending on the bread used. Generously spread across the warm toast is a layer of creamy cottage cheese. It brings a mild tanginess and a rich, creamy texture that contrasts beautifully with the crisp bread and the bold flavours of the vegetables. The true heart of the dish comes from the oven-roasted vegetables—a medley of juicy tomatoes and tender aubergines (eggplants) baked until caramelized and slightly crispy at the edges.
