Step by Step guide
Step 1
First, take the eggplant and cherry tomatoes, slice them into thin rounds, lightly sprinkle with salt and herbs, and place them in the microwave for about 7 minutes (or in the oven). Once the vegetables are cooked, remove them from the microwave and drizzle with a little soy sauce, mix, and let cool.
Step 2
Preheat the oven to 356°F. Pass the cottage cheese through a sieve (you can vary the overall fat content of the casserole by choosing more or less fatty cottage cheese), grind the oat bran and fiber into flour in a coffee grinder and add to the cottage cheese. If you are not keen on bran, you can simply add 50 g of flour; I would recommend whole grain.
Step 3
Separate the egg whites from the yolks. Whip the egg whites into a stiff foam with a pinch of salt. If fat content is not a major concern for you, you can add the yolks to the cottage cheese and mix.
Step 4
Finely chop the cilantro, eggplant, and tomatoes, and add them to the cottage cheese. Squeeze in the garlic, add the baking powder, and mix thoroughly.
Step 5
Carefully fold the whipped egg whites into the cottage cheese mixture gradually; when the mixture becomes homogeneous, taste it and add salt, pepper, and herbes de Provence if needed.
Step 6
Pour the mixture into a baking dish (you can grease it with oil) and place it in the preheated oven for 45 minutes.
Step 7
Remove the finished casserole from the oven, let it sit and cool a bit. The key here is to control yourself and not dive into it immediately because the smell will be amazing!
