Method

I love to cook sliced aubergines on a griddle pan; just make sure you get a nice caramelisation around the edges of the grilled aubergines as this adds so much flavour to the final dish. Aubergines work so well with spices and a scattering of tangy, salty feta adds contrast and brightness, cutting beautifully through the aubergine’s warmth. The dish is finished with a luscious walnut dressing,
