- Place the aubergines on a sheet of foil on a baking tray, rub with 1 tablespoon oil and prick all over with a fork. Place under the grill at 240°C / 475°F / 220°C Fan / Gas Mark 9. Cook for 10 minutes, turn using tongs and cook for another 10 minutes. Once they are soft and collapsing, remove from the oven, cut down the middle to release some steam and leave to cool for approx. 10 minutes.
- While the aubergine cools, add the rest of the ingredients to a bowl, mix.
- Scoop flesh out of the aubergine skins, add to other ingredients, either mash with a fork or blend with a stick blender until you get the consistency you want.
- Alternatively, put this all in a food processor and pulse until it’s how you like it. Serve with more chopped parsley (if using), a drizzle of oilve oil and a sprinkling of Smoked Paprika.
