    i put the aubergine on toasted bread then baked in the oven, i also fried off onions and garlic in butter with a few more herbs and put that on top of the tomatoe then i finally put the cheese on and baked it. turned out GREAT!!! i thought the proper recipe was a bit boring and wasnt that tasty so adding a few of my own things to spice it up turned out lovely. i suggest you try my one out.

    I made this recipe last night as a starter (we had one half of the aubergine each). I added a few turns of black pepper and Tabasco Sauce to give it a wee kick! I also used half fat Mozzarella. Absolutely fantastic, relatively healthy, easy to make, tasty and surprisingly filling!

    I really enjoyed these! Suprisingly filling and I'll agree with the 'quite meaty' comment too! Will defo be doing them again.

    Took the previous advices and instead of just using sliced tomatoes, I chopped them and made a chunky sauce with garlic, onion & puree. Tested fine, but not easy to eat
