  • 1 tsp of sea salt
  • 450 g of aubergines
  • 1 hot green chilli, seeded and finely chopped
  • 60 g of vegetable oil
  • 1 handful fresh coriander (for garnish)
  • 1 tbsp of tomato paste

Method

  • Step 1

    Mix the spices, salt and tomato paste with 1 tbsp of the oil in a small bowl. Spread the spice mixture over the cut sides of the aubergine slices. Cut the slices into strips.
