SAMPLE RECIPE

Slow-cooked aubergine (pictured left)
(Serves 4–6 as a starter)
This vegetable stew is such a simple combination of ingredients, but they undergo this amazing transformation during cooking to become more than the sum of their parts. A dish that just gets better and better the longer you allow the flavours to mingle.

Olive oil, for frying
2 aubergines, trimmed and cut into 3cm chunks
3 garlic cloves, peeled and chopped
1 red onion, peeled and diced
1×400g tin butter beans, drained and rinsed
2 tbsp pomegranate molasses (see page 205)
1×400g tin chopped tomatoes
Pinch of caster sugar
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

To serve
1 loaf of crusty white bread, e.g. sourdough or pain de campagne
Small bunch of mint, leaves roughly chopped
100g feta cheese, crumbled

Heat a heavy-based casserole dish over a high heat. Add a glug of oil and fry the aubergine for 3–4 minutes until coloured on all sides. Add the garlic and onion and fry for another 5 minutes until the onion is tender.

Stir in the butter beans and pomegranate molasses with a generous pinch of salt and grinding of pepper. Add the tomatoes and sugar. Bring to the boil, then lower the heat and simmer, uncovered, for 40–45 minutes until the aubergine is tender and collapsed and the stew reduced and flavoursome. (If you find the mixture is drying out too much, add a couple of tablespoons of water.)

To serve, slice the bread and toast on each side until golden. Stir the mint through the aubergine, spoon onto the slices of toast and scatter over the crumbled feta. Serve warm.

How to salt aubergines

Although it’s not essential to salt aubergine before you fry it, doing so draws out the moisture and makes it absorb less oil. Simply chop or dice the aubergine as required, place in a colander and sprinkle with about one teaspoon of salt. Leave for 30 minutes, then rinse well, pat dry on kitchen paper and cook as you wish.
