Aubergine couscous salad is a turkish vegetarian favourite that comes together with everyday ingredients and a little patience. Here’s how we make it in our test kitchen.
Ingredients
- 1 sliced Aubergine
- 3 tablespoons Olive Oil
- 140g Couscous
- 225g Vegetable Stock
- 200g Cherry Tomatoes
- Handful Mint
- 100g Goats Cheese
- Juice of 1/2 Lemon
Method
Heat grill to high. Put the aubergine on a baking sheet, brush with oil and season. Grill for about 15 mins, turning and brushing with more oil halfway, until browned and softened.
Meanwhile, tip the couscous into a large bowl, pour over the stock, then cover and leave for 10 mins. Mix the tomatoes, mint, goat’s cheese and remaining oil together. Fluff the couscous up with a fork, then stir in the aubergines, tomato mixture and lemon juice.
