Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Mix all the dressing ingredients together in a small bowl and set aside.

  2. Boil a kettle of water. Rinse bulgur wheat well and place it in a bowl. Once the water comes to the boil pour about 1¼ cup (300 ml) of boiling water over it. Cover the bowl with a tight fitting lid or an upside down plate immediately. Set aside for 10-15 mins to allow it to 'cook'. If using quinoa or millet instead, cook them according to the packet instructions.

  3. Place cumin, coriander, chilli flakes, sweet paprika and a good pinch of salt in a small bowl. Mix 2-3 tbsp of olive oil in with the spices to achieve a thick spice rub. Mix in finely grated garlic clove.

  4. Heat up the oven to 200º C / 390º F and line a large baking tray with a piece of baking paper.

  5. Wash aubergines, cut them in half lengthwise and scour the flesh in a criss-cross pattern. Go in as deep as you can without cutting the skin.
