Preparation and cooking times
Ready in 1 hr 30 mins
- Heat the oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5. Score the aubergine flesh in a crisscross pattern but don't go all the way through. Sit scored-side up, snugly in a baking dish, season really well and drizzle with olive oil. Cover with foil and bake for 45 minutes.
- While the aubergine is baking, cook the garlic in 2 tbsp olive oil until soft. Tip in the tomatoes and simmer for 15 minutes until thickened. Stir in most of the basil.
- After 30 minutes take off the foil and pour the sauce over the aubergines. Scatter over the parmesan then bake for another 40-45 minutes until golden and bubbling. Serve sprinkled with the rest of the basil and with a green salad.
