Ingredients
- 2 large eggplant
- 500 g baby potatoes
- 250 g cherry tomatoes
- 2 tbsp harissa paste
- 4 tbsp olive oil
- 3 large garlic cloves
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 2 tbsp, chopped fresh parsley
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 2
Wash the eggplants and slice them lengthwise into 1.5 cm thick slices. Lay the slices on a baking sheet and brush both sides with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and set aside.
Step 3
Halve the baby potatoes if they are large. In a large mixing bowl, combine the potatoes with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, harissa paste, minced garlic, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to coat the potatoes evenly.
Step 4
Spread the harissa-coated potatoes onto the second baking sheet in a single layer.
Step 5
Place both baking sheets in the oven. Roast for 20 minutes.
Step 6
After 20 minutes, add the cherry tomatoes to the baking sheet with the eggplant. Toss them lightly with a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt. Return both sheets to the oven and roast for an additional 20 minutes, or until the eggplants are golden and tender, the potatoes are crispy, and the tomatoes have softened and slightly burst.
Step 7
Remove the baking sheets from the oven. Arrange the roasted eggplant slices on a serving platter, top with the harissa potatoes, and scatter the roasted cherry tomatoes on top.
Step 8
Finish with a sprinkle of fresh parsley and a drizzle of lemon juice for brightness. Serve warm as a main dish or side.
