Mob's Favourite Aubergine Recipes
Aubergine is a versatile veg that can add some substance to a curry or salad as well be a dish on its own. Who can say no to an aubergine parmigiana? Not me.
Imagine aubergine parm and a silky bowl of pasta had a baby. This is she. Tomatoey orzotto topped with crispy basil crumbs. Incredible.
Tender aubergine embedded in fragrant and spicy harissa-spiked Tilda Basmati and Wild Rice. Top with cooling lemony yoghurt, crispy onions and toasted almonds.
Aubergine gets lovely and smokey on the griddle pan and so works an absolute charm in this dish. A great veggie version of the classic.
An absolute monster of a vegan dish. Make sure you add a bit more yoghurt over the top for that extra fresh hit.

All the best bits of an aubergine parm in a fresh vibrant salad. Crunchy ciabatta croutons and jammy tomatoes, perfect for the summer.
Completely vegan with deliciously sharp flavours. It's an incredible one, MOB.
Why more people are not coating their spaghetti in spicy harissa paste, tonnes of herbs and creamy mascarpone we do not know. So flavoursome. So saucy.
A delicious, rich pasta dish. Covered in a layer of charred grilled aubergines. An Italian classic. Such a showstopper.
The ultimate picnic sandwich. Leaving it overnight presses all the layers together. Aubergine. Pesto. Parma Ham. Salami. Mozzarella. An incredible mouthful.
