Ingredients

  • 2 large aubergines

  • 2 tbsp. olive oil

  • 1 small onion, chopped

  • 2 cloves garlic, chopped

  • 2 tbsp. chopped parsley, plus more to garnish

  • 1 cup (200g) chickpeas, drained

  • 2 tbsp. tahini

  • juice of ½ lime

  • salt, pepper, oil

  • Spices
  • 1 tsp. turmeric

  • 1 tsp. oregano

  • 1 tsp. cumin

  • 1 tbsp. coriander, fresh, chopped

  • 1/3 tsp. hot paprika

  • 1/3 tsp. sweet paprika

Directions

  • Heat the oven to 400F (200C).
  • Cut the aubergines in half lengthwise, place them on a baking tray lined with baking paper, and bake in the oven for about 25 – 30 minutes. Once baked remove the flesh with a spoon, leaving about ¼ inch (1/2 cm) of the edges of the aubergine. Chop the aubergine flesh and set aside.
  • Heat a pan with 2 tbsp. of olive oil, add the chopped onion and finely chopped garlic, fry for 2-3 minutes. Then add the chopped flesh, and season with salt and pepper. Continue cooking for another 5 minutes stirring often.
  • Next add the spices, and fry for another 2-3 minutes, adding water as needed to avoid burning.
  • Add the chopped parsley and take off the heat. Finally add the chickpeas, tahini and lime juice, mix, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Transfer the stuffing into the halved cooked aubergines and serve with fresh chopped parsley.
