In the summer season, eggplant dishes are especially popular – fried, stewed, baked, in the form of caviar … But sometimes you want to deviate from the usual recipes and cook something completely new, with an interesting taste. This dish does not contain any “overseas” ingredients, but the result is surprising – due to the addition of melted cheese, eggplants fried with onions are very tender. And dried Provencal herbs make this appetizer especially aromatic.
