  This recipe was very easy to make and was quite tasty - a good midweek recipe but my family felt it was lacking something - meat probably!! I liked it.

  I used onions in my version, cooking them first before adding garlic, served with yummy sausages. A treat for the whole family.

  We really enjoyed this as a side dish with some chicken marinated in harissa sauce and a lovely Greek salad. Lovely cold as leftovers too.

  This was fabulous, I added onions and mushrooms and used cheddar cheese as I did not have parmesan. It went down a treat with all the family. Plus I think aubergines are a wonderful vegetable.

  Gorgeousssssssss. I used pasatta instead of chopped tomatoes and grana padano instead og the parmesan. Even kids like it and it was gluten free! Will definately make again.

  Absolutely gorgeous, I have been after a recipe for this for ages and am so pleased I found this one. I made it a few hours before which I think helped and we ate it with crusty bread. Will definitely be making again!

  This dish is fabulous!! I used courgettes and aubergines and the acquired such a lovely flavour from being cooked on the griddle. I made the tomato sauce quite spicy and added some onion as well. Even the meat and two veg boyfriend gave it a go and has requested we have it again soon!

  i made this recipe in the morning ready to pop in the oven after work (very convenient) and i have to say i rather enjoyed it. i used passata instead of the chopped tomatoes and added slices of mozzarella to each layer. the 'meatiness' of the aubergines made a very satisfying meal, served with some warm crusty bread rolls to mop up the juices.

  I made this but the aubergines were so so bitter, think they needed to be salted and left for a while first to take away the bitterness. I am surprised other people didnt have that problem too. Will try again as other than that I think it would be a tasty dish

  I made this last night and it was AMAZING, I cant believe such a simple recipe can result in something so delicious. I don't like parmesan so used a mix of mozzarella and cheddar (how authentic!) for the topping. We halved the amount of aubergines but kept everyhting else the same and it was enough for 4 medium or 3 large servings with salad and bread rolls. I'm really looking forward to having it for my lunch again today!

  Yum Yum! Turned this into aubergine lasagne by layering up with pasta sheets and shredded halloumi. Also added an onion and a blob of pesto to the tomatoes... delicious!

  I've made this two times now and it's delicious. Quite a bit of work grilling the aubergines but it's worth the effort. I make it for two people and we eat half with some crusty bread. I blitz the other half in the food processor, add some water and heat it to make a pasta sauce.
