Aubergine halves with Asian glaze

Serves: 4
Total Time: 1 hr

Ingredients

  • 400 – 500g/2 medium aubergines, sliced in half lengthways
  • 2 tbsp miso paste
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 60ml (¼ cup) rice vinegar
  • ½ tsp sesame oil
  • 3 spring onions, thinly
  • julienned and soaked in ice water (to curl)
  • 1 red chilli, seeded and finely chopped, to garnish (optional)
  • sesame seeds, to sprinkle
  • lime halves, to serve

Instructions

1

Preheat the oven to 180˚C. Place the aubergine halves in a roasting tray and roast in the preheated oven until tender, about 30 minutes.

2

While the aubergines are roasting, combine the miso paste, honey, rice vinegar and sesame oil in a medium bowl. Mix until a smooth glaze forms. Once the aubergine halves have reached their cooking time, remove from oven and brush each half with a generous coating of the glaze. Return to oven and continue to roast until golden, about 5 minutes. Brush the halves with a second coating of glaze and roast for another 5 minutes. In the meantime, drain the spring-onion curls.

3

To serve, brush the aubergine halves with a final coating of glaze. Top with the drained spring onions, chopped red chilli, if using, and sesame seeds. Enjoy with the lime halves and any leftover glaze alongside.
