Griddled Aubergine Peanut Salad
Introduction from Niki Webster
This dish has all my favourite flavours – smoky griddled aubergine, fresh and juicy cucumber, salted peanuts and lashings of gorgeously nutty sauce. Don’t skimp on the dressing! And if you do have any left over, use it to drizzle on roast veg to make them even more delicious.
Ingredients
Method
Add the sliced aubergines, toasted sesame oil and soy sauce to a bowl and toss to combine.
Heat a griddle pan on a medium heat and place a few slices of the aubergine in the pan. Turn a few times until charred and cooked through. Remove to a plate and keep warm. Repeat with the remaining slices.
To make the peanut dressing, add all the ingredients to a jar and stir to combine.
Serve the cooked rice topped with the charred aubergine slices, crushed cucumbers, spring onions, coriander, salted peanuts and lots of the dressing.
