Preparation

Take your aubergines and wash them carefully, slice them, add salt and let them rest on a colander. After about half an hour, fry them on a griddle pan without oil, taking care to turn them half way through. Chop some garlic and parsley in a blender. Combine some salt, oil and vinegar and mix thoroughly together. Season and serve.

Tips
Instead of garlic you can spice up your seasoning with a few drops of garlic oil, equally fragrant but rather more digestible. If you love spicy, strong flavours, you can add some chilli or capers. Finally, in place of the parsley these aubergines are also excellent with mint.
Trivia
With same cooking method you can also make courgettes and peppers – for the latter you should not use garlic and vinegar but copious quantities of mint instead.
