Instructions

  • Preheat the grill or a grill pan over medium heat with some olive oil.
  • Cut the aubergines in half lengthwise and place with the cut side facing down the grill pan.
  • Grill for 6-12 minutees, until grillmarks start to appear and they are soft and tender.
  • Meanwhile combine the rest of the ingredients except for the ricotta salata in a bowl. Taste to check if more seasoning is needed or it needs to be thinned with some water.
  • When the aubergines are ready place them on a plate and top with the herb gremolata and shaved ricotta salata.
