How to Make Aubergine And Pepper Delight

  1. Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
  2. Slice the aubergine into ½-inch thick rings. Place them in a colander, sprinkle generously with salt, and let them sit for 30 minutes to draw out excess moisture. Then, rinse thoroughly and pat dry with paper towels.
  3. While the aubergine is salting, de-seed the bell peppers and cut them into 1-inch strips.
  4. In a shallow roasting pan, toss the aubergine and pepper strips with 2 tablespoons of New Zealand avocado oil, salt, and black pepper.
  5. Spread the vegetables in a single layer in the roasting pan and roast for 20 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and slightly charred.
  6. For a warm side dish, serve immediately. For a refreshing cold salad, let the roasted vegetables cool completely. Toss gently with Greek yogurt and garnish with fresh basil before serving.
