Grilled Aubergine Stack
I’ve decided to start a Throw-Back-Thursday section to my blog, where I’ll post some recipes and other content from ‘back-in-the-day’. I’ve decided to share this recipe with you, which is one of my earliest entries.
I love love love aubergines, or as we call them back in South Africa ‘Bringals’. They are quite versatile and can be used to make vegetable lasagna, are the main ingredient in the middle eastern baba ganoush, and make perfect additions to any roast vegetable dish.
Here I have made a stack with a delicious rich roasted red pepper and tomato sauce. The avocado evens out the flavors and the sweetness of the corn really compliments the dish as a whole.
