Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 medium aubergines
juice 1 lemon
2-3 garlic cloves , crushed
150ml pot thick yogurt
small bunch dill , leaves chopped

Steps:

  • Heat grill to very hot. Slice the aubergines in half lengthways, then grill for 25 mins, turning occasionally, until soft - the skin will remain firm, but the flesh will soften. Lift the aubergines off the grill and leave until cool enough to handle.
  • Using a sharp knife, score the grilled flesh and scoop out the flesh with a spoon. Tip into a bowl and mash with a fork until you get a thick pulp. Beat in the lemon juice and garlic. Add the yogurt and dill, and season. Serve while still warm.
