Mother-in-law's tongue from eggplant with tomatoes and garlic is a very simple, but at the same time delicious, quick appetizer. It wasn’t difficult to make; everything was ready in literally 10 minutes. I made the appetizer based on one small eggplant. I used gouda cheese. I had cherry tomatoes and used them, cutting them into quarters. The eggplant was not soaked in salt water. I got six rolls. The appetizer is very tasty, with a bright taste and pleasant piquancy. I really liked the fresh tomato in the appetizer, it brings some freshness to the overall taste. It turned out very tasty! Thank you very much for the recipe, Irinyshka!

Thanks for the recipe. These eggplants are ideal both as a snack and for a light dinner. I didn’t have any greens, but I sprinkled them with lightly toasted sesame seeds. And I warmed them up a little in the microwave so that the cheese would melt.
