Aubergines are widely used in our middle eastern recipes; you are probably well acquainted with the iconic aubergine based dish called Mutabbal, or better known as aubergine caviar!! This recipe resembles the mutabbal in ingredients but it is much easier and quicker to make!


Grilled Aubergines with Tahini Sauce

2 medium sized aubergines
Rock salt
Olive oil

Tahini sauce
3 tbs Tahini
1 tsp lemon juice
6 tsp water (or more)
Salt & pepper
Paprika

Pre heat the oven to 200°C
Wash and pierce the aubergines
Place them into an oven tray, drizzle with some olive oil, sprinkle with some rock salt and bake for 1 hour at 200°C
To make the Tahini sauce simply whisk the 3 tbs of Tahini, 1 tsp lemon juice and 3 tsp of water. The mixture will thicken, at this stage add 3 tsp of water, or more, and continue to whisk until you get to the desired consistency

Once the aubergines are baked and out of the oven serve them with a generous dollop of the tahini sauce, with a side of Basmati rice, a drizzle of sesame oil. Garnish with some coriander and a sprinkle of paprika
