Ingredients
- 2 medium aubergines
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 3 whole garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon ground turmeric
- 0.5 teaspoon chili flakes
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons fresh coriander
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Step 2
Start by preparing the aubergines: Cut off the green tops and slice them lengthwise into rounds about 1/2 inch thick.
Step 3
Place the aubergine slices on a tray, sprinkle them with salt, and let them sit for about 10 minutes. This will help draw out any bitterness.
Step 4
In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, minced garlic (use a garlic press or finely chop), ground coriander, ground cumin, ground turmeric, chili flakes, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper.
Step 5
After 10 minutes, rinse the salt off the aubergine slices under cold water and pat them dry with a kitchen towel.
Step 6
Brush both sides of the aubergine slices with the spice mixture generously.
Step 7
Place the seasoned aubergine slices on the grill and cook for about 7-10 minutes on each side, until they are tender and have nice grill marks.
Step 8
Remove the aubergine slices from the grill. Transfer them to a serving platter.
Step 9
Garnish the grilled aubergine with freshly chopped coriander leaves.
Step 10
Serve the Low Fat Aubergine Rotie warm as a side dish or enjoy it as a part of a main meal.
