Method

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick frying pan and stirfry the onion and aubergine. After about 4 minutes the vegetables will start to turn golden but won't be soft yet, so cover with a lid and let the vegetables steam-fry in their own juices for 6 minutes - this helps them to soften without needing to add any extra oil.
  2. Stir in the paprika, garlic, tomatoes and sugar with 1⁄2 tsp salt and cook for another 8-10 minutes, stirring, until onion and aubergine are tender.
  3. Scatter in the basil leaves then nestle the fish in the sauce, cover the pan and cook for 6-8 minutes until the fish flakes when tested with a knife and the flesh is firm but still moist. Tear over the rest of the basil and serve with a salad and crusty bread.

    I have made this recipe a number of times. Easy to make. It even converted someone who claimed to "hate" eggplant (aubergine).

    Made this last night for the first time, I'm a student but fancied making something a bit more interesting than usual! Didn't have any aubergine, and swapped tinned tomatoes for fresh cherry tomatoes, and it turned out quite sweet and delicious!

    This was light and flavourful. I served it with chunky farmhouse loaf. This was the first time I had cooked aubergine and it turned out great.

    Have made it a few times and now add a few drops of Worcester sauce and a little stock for a slightly richer flavour.

    Too much salt and way too long cooking-time, there are other similar recipes done in half the time. Tasted okay, except from the 1/2 teaspoon salt!

    This was delicious! I only used a pinch of salt though as I didn't think it needed the stated amount. Will definitely make this again!

    Absolutely delicious. Even my daughter who is not a fish lover gave it 10/10. I served it with crushed garlic potatoes. Mmm.

    Made it with some courgettes instead of aubergine and added a small portion of tuna I had left over.

    So quick, healthy and tasty. I had it as a main meal so added a tin of borlotti beans to bulk it for my husband. Really enjoyed and will definitely do it again.
