Eggplant tarte Tatin
I could describe the taste of this tart, but believe me, it is better to try once. From a simple set of products with minimum effort the result is something incredible! Products are simple, but the technology is a bit unusual - the filling is baked first, then frozen, and the dough is frozen before baking. All can be prepared in advance and even freeze for future use. So in case of unexpected guests, not too unexpected, of course... those that call on the phone and not immediately on the door :), you are in full combat readiness!

Cooking

step-0
Eggplant wrap in foil, bake in the oven for about 20 minutes at 180 degrees. Clean, cut into slices. Apples cleaned, remove core, cut in half.
step-1
The vanilla cut, remove the seeds. Grains of cardamom, crushed in a mortar. You can flavor this tart according to your taste - cinnamon, cardamom, vanilla, lemon zest... well, anything, if only it were combined with apples)
step-2
Prepare silicone molds (20 cm) butter 20 g. Begin to caramel. In a bowl with a thick bottom put our spices and pour approximately 40 grams of sugar. Put on a high heat and wait until the sugar begins to melt. Caramel does not interfere! Periodically remove the pan from the heat and rotate it to the sugar is melted evenly. Something like if you fried the pancakes. When the first portion is melted in parts, add the remaining sugar. Fire is better to reduce to medium. Caramel - lady capricious and requires constant attention, otherwise it may burn, so not distracted) When all the sugar has caramelicious, carefully add the butter room temperature and stir well. Hot caramel immediately pour into the form.
step-3
Put the apples, alternating with eggplant. Put in a preheated 170 degree oven. Bake approximately 50 minutes - hour. By this time the apples will become soft. Get the form from the oven and press the stuffing plate or a lid the right size. Cover more convenient to do it. Send in the oven for another 40 minutes. Take out, again press. During this time, the filling will decrease by about half, and the liquid is almost evaporated.
step-4
Zest 1-2 lemons to RUB on a fine grater, sprinkle our apples-eggplant. Cooling to room temperature, again to press a lid and freeze.
step-5
For crumble almonds grind in a blender (coffee grinder) into flour. Add the cocoa, flour, sugar and chopped in small pieces of cold butter. Quickly mix until smooth. To form a sausage, wrap in cling film, freeze. This pre-training we're done. Now I sit, waiting for a call)
step-6
And when you want to treat yourself (or friends with a phenomenal intuition, that feeling that you have in the freezer is hiding a gorgeous dessert :) ), take out from the freezer the dough, grate. On a baking sheet with paper (silicone Mat) put the baking ring for 20-21 cm, distributed chocolate chips, not pressed! Bake for 20 minutes at a temperature of 160 degrees. Consider the features of your oven. On a warm basis to lay out a stuffing, to give defrost. Before serving, lightly warm in the microwave. Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
