Love, Niki xxx

1 aubergine sliced lengthways into about 4 slices
Olive oil for rubbing

For the blistered tomatoes
200 g cherry tomatoes sliced in half
1 tsp balsamic glaze
1/2 tsp smoked paprika
Splash olive oil
Pinch sea salt

For the dressing
Juice 1/2 lemon
1 clove garlic
Salt and pepper
Big handful basil

For the smashed avocado
1 avocado
Salt and pepper
Lemon juice

Optional toppings
Chilli flakes
Sea salt
Extra virgin olive oil
Pomegranate seeds
Toasted pine nuts

Heat your griddle pan to hot and then add the sliced aubergines (rub a little olive oil on both sides first). Keep turning until nice and charred on both sides and cooked through.

To make the tomatoes
Add the oil to a large frying pan, heat to medium.
Add the balsamic, paprika and olive oil to a bowl and mix. Chop the cherry tomatoes in half, then add them to the bowl and mix well.
Place the cherry tomato’s bottom side down on the olive oil.
Fry for 2-3 minutes on low to medium then turn over and fry for a further minute.
Remove from the pan and set aside. Season.

To make the dressing
To make the green dressing, pop all the ingredients into a mini chopper (or pestle and mortar if you don’t have one) and blitz until you get a lovely green sauce.

To serve
Mash your avocado in a bowl with salt, pepper, and lemon juice to taste.
Finally, layer the aubergines, then the smashed avocado, then tomatoes, and drizzle with the basil dressing.
Sprinkle with toppings of choice.
