This is the absolute best recipe I have found for cooking aubergines, I don’t mind aubergines but I do get why people don’t, it’s a texture thing, you won’t find that here! Aubergines also have a very bad habit of soaking up a lot of oil, but not in this recipe. It is delicious and healthy especially if cooked with coconut oil.
