Ottolenghi Style Aubergine ish

This is probably about as close to veggie you're going to get from me. Inspired by one of the greats, it's a sticky, smoky cooked aubergine, and it's a right crowd pleaser if you ask me. Elevating a veggie into something that actually rivals a steak or a juicy chicken thigh is a pretty tall order if you ask me. However, this bad boy sure does a good job!!

Step 1

Start by charring the aubergines. Rub them with a little olive oil, then place them on a very hot griddle pan, BBQ, or directly over a flame if you have gas. Turn them every few minutes until the skins are blackened all over and the aubergines feel completely soft inside, around 20 to 30 minutes. For ease, you can also finish them in the oven for 15 minutes at 200 if in a rush.
