- Once the mass is completely frozen, turn the chafing dish over and remove the 'tomato ice' block in one go.
- Let the 'tomato ice' block thaw in a cheesecloth. This takes about 2 days in the refrigerator.
- Then season with sushi-su and salt and lightly bind with xanthan so the mass stays nicely on the plate.
- Blend the yogurt, egg white, sushi-su, and salt in the blender.
- Slowly emulsify the mixture with the parsley oil.
- Season further with salt and sushi-su if desired and transfer to piping bags.
- Season the crème fraîche with salt.
- Cold smoke the crème fraîche for 6 minutes.
- Cut the eggplant to the desired size and grill or fry it.
- Draw lines of the parsley emulsion over the top.
- Sprinkle with the BBQ crumble.
- Pipe dots of the smoked crème fraîche.
- Pour the tomato water around and let a few drops of parsley oil fall in.
- Finish the eggplant with paprika drops and cress of your choice.
